Aeronautical data is information, concepts and instructions that are required for the safe and efficient performance of flights. This includes geographical information. Aeronautical data on different processes and media are currently being collected and digitalised at Skyguide air traffic control and at the FOCA.

These options concern the same services and tasks as in the basic contract, but each option augments the basic contract with additional data and/or processes.
