For Industry Access to 

Aircraft Situation Display and National Airspace System 

Status Information Data 

June I, 2006 

1 Parties 

This Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) is entered into by and between the Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA) and . hereafter referred to as a 

Direct Subscriber (defined in Section 5.4 below). The parties do hereby agree and obligate themselves to 

abide by the rights, responsibilities, and other conditions defined in this agreement. 

2 Background 

In accordance with principles embodied in the Technology Transfer Act, the Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA) is making air Traffic Flow Management (TFM) data, such as filtered Aircraft 

Situation Display (ASD) and National Airspace System (NAS) Status Information (NASSI) data, as well as 

subsets of that data, available to the aviation and other industries based on defined classes of users. 

The ASD data includes the near real time position and other relevant flight data for every civil instrument 

flight rules (IFR) aircraft receiving radar services within the NAS. The filtered data, meaning that military 

and sensitive operations are not included, is referred to as ASD to Industry (ASDl) data. The NASSI data 

includes a wide range of information regarding the status of NAS components, such as airport runway 

visual range and special use airspace data. 

in 1992, the FAA joined with the Air Transport Association of America through a Cooperative Research 

and Development Agreement to research the operational and economic value of providing ASDI data to the 

aviation industry. The research with a prototype capability clearly showed that industry access to ASDI 

data can provide immediate and significant economic benefits to airlines by providing an increased 

dispatching flexibility to more efficiently manage their own operational (e.g., aircraft, aircrews, etc.) 

resources. The research also demonstrated that ASDt data could present an opportunity for other 

commercial and academic institutions to build upon the data to achieve advances in commercial services to 

the aviation community and aviation-related research. As a result of these findings, on December 5, 1997, 

the FAA established the ASDI data feed. 

Given the economic and aviation service benefits that have evolved from the release of ASDI data, it has 

become clear that the additional operational flow management data generated through the Collaborative 

Decision Making (CDM) program could stimulate even more benefits to the aviation community and the 

public. Therefore, in September 1998, the FAA authorized the augmentation of ASDI data through the 

1 

ii- 'i j 
release of selected NASSI data elements. This MOA is the agreement for authorized access to filtered 

ASDI and/or selected NASSI data. 

As a result of the aviation-related attacks of September 11, 2001 in the United States, the FAA reviewed 

security risks related to the ASDI/NASSI feed and determined that only Subscribers that are Class One 

Users (See Section 5.2) are authorized to receive the ftill near real time ASDI and NASSI data set (this 

includes Direct Subscribers with Class One Indirect Subscribers). Subscribers that are Class Two Users 

(See Section 5.3) are not authorized to receive near real time flight tracking and posifion messages. Class 

Two Users are only authorized to receive the full ASDI and NASSI data set that has been time-delayed at 

least 5 minutes. The scope and content of ASDI/NASSI data that will be available to government users and 

research and development organizations will be determined by the FAA on a case-by-case basis. Sections 

7.1 and 7.2 of this MOA describe the responsibilities of the FAA and Direct Subscribers, including limits 

on redistribution of the ASDI and NASSI data. 

3 Purpose 

This MOA identifies the rights, responsibilities, and other conditions for the FAA and the Direct 

Subscribers (both Class One and Class Two Users) of ASDI and NASSI data. This MOA supersedes the 

ASDI/NASSI MOA dated March 17, 2004. 

4 Authority 

The FAA's authority to enter into this MOA is governed by 49 United States Code (U.S.C.) 106 (1)(6). 

5 Definitions 

5.1 ASDI Data: 

The subset of ASD data as defined by current technical specifications that are provided to commercial air 

carriers and other aviation-related industries. 

5.2 Class One User: 

A Class One User is a professional aviation organization with an established flight dispatch or planning 

function that requires near real time positional flight-tracking capabilities. This organization must have 

direct responsibility for dispatching or tracking aircraft it ovms or be contracted by the owner of the aircraft 

to do so. Examples are airlines, regional air carriers, air taxis, any organizafion providing dispatch or 

tracking functions for aircraft owners, flight operation centers, government users (as described in Section 

5.5), and professional flight planning service providers. 

Fixed Base Operators (FBOs), corporate flight departments, and part 135 operators must have direct 

responsibility for dispatching or tracking aircraft to qualify as a Class One User. The FAA shall be the 

final arbiter for any disputes regarding the interpretation of this Section. 

5.3 Class Two User: 

A Class Two User is any user not meeting the criteria of a Class One User (e.g., most general aviation; nonaviation-related entities and individuals; any other entity without a specific requirement for near real time 

positional flight-tracking). Class Two Users can obtain Class Two (time-delayed data) either directly from 
the FAA Enhanced Traffic Management System Hubsite Class Two ASDI/NASSI Interface or from Direct 

Subscribers that provide time-delayed Class Two data. 

5.4 Direct Subscriber: 

A Direct Subscriber is any entity that receives the ASDI/NASSI data (Class One or Class Two) directly 

from the FAA Enhanced Traffic Management System Hubsite. A Direct Subscriber will be eligible to 

receive Class One data only if they have Class One Subscribers as defined in section 5.2. Entities (e.g., 

AT&T, MCI, Sprint) solely providing commimications support under contract to Direct Subscribers are not 

considered to be Direct Subscribers. 

5.5 Government User: 

A Government User is a national, federal, state, or local goverrmient organization, airport authority, or 

authorized organization acting on behalf of a Government organization. 

5.6 Indirect Subscriber: 

An Indirect Subscriber is an entity that receives the ASDI/NASSI data but not directly fi-om the FAA 

Enhanced Traffic Management System Hubsite. Indirect Subscribers that redistribute data received from 

Direct Subscribers are subject to the same requirements and restrictions as the Direct Subscriber, as 

detailed in section 7.2. If an Indirect Subscriber receives Class One data, that Indirect Subscriber will be 

subject to the audit in accordance with section 7.2.12. However, Indirect Subscribers that receive and 

redistribute only Class Two data are not subject to the audit in section 7.2.12. 

5.7 NASSI Data: 

The subset of NAS status information that is provided to Direct Subscribers. The NASSI data includes a 

wide range of specific TFM-related airport, airspace, and system information that reflects the condition and 

operational status of the NAS. As is the case with the ASDI feed, the elements of the NASSI data 

revealing aircraft position are only available in near real time to Class One Users and with at least a 5 

minute time-delay to Class Two Users. Other NASSI data may be made available to Class Two Users at 

the FAA discretion. 

5.8 Data Access: 

Class One Users are authorized to receive the full near real time ASDI and/or NASSI data feed (Class One 

data). Class Two Users ore only authorized to receive the ftill ASDI and/or NASSI data feed that has been 

time-delayed at least 5 minutes (Class Two data). Government organizations and aviation system research 

and development industries will be categorized by the FAA on a case-by-case basis. Access and use 

restrictions for non-United States domestic ASDI/NASSI data are provided in section 10 of this MOA. 

Direct Subscribers may access ASDI data only (or a subset thereof), NASSI data only (or a subset thereoO, 

or both ASDI and NASSI data (or subsets thereof). 

6 Scope

Class I Subscribers into compliance with the MOA shall be implemented in a timely manner (as specified 

by the FAA in the response to the audit report) or the FAA may take action I AW Secfion 15of the MOA. 
9 Privacy and Security Interests 

The ASDI and NASSI data includes the near real time position and other flight data associated with civil 

instmment flight rules (IFR) aircraft. While commercial operators conduct business according to a 

published listing of service and schedule, general aviation operators do not. It is possible that public 

knowledge of the flight information of general aviation operators could compromise the privacy and/or 

security of individuals. The protection of such information is not covered under the Privacy Act (5 U.S.C. 

552a), and the cost of developing and operating the technical mechanisms required to manage that 

information exceeds available FAA resources. The FAA recognizes that certain industry initiatives exist to 

collect requests from aircraft owners to exclude their aircraft from ASDI data feeds available to the public, 

either in near real-time or in recorded (historical) format. The FAA accommodates these initiatives to the 

extent they support and respect these privacy and security interests. All Direct Subscribers (as a condition 

of signing this MOA) and Indirect Subscribers (as a condition of signing agreements with Direct 

Subscribers) are asked to consider and respect these privacy and security interests when developing and/or 

marketing ASDI and/or NASSI-based products. If the FAA determines that any Direct and/or Indirect 

Subscribers develop and/or market products that violate this provision, the FAA's rights under Section 15 

shall apply. 

10 Non-United States Domestic ASDI/NASSI Data 

10.1 

A Class One User may receive access to British flight data (London data). 

10.2 

A Class One User is authorized to receive the London data if it is designated an approved recipient by 

satisfying one or both of the following conditions: 

• The Class One User owns and operates aircraft in Europe, and therefore, pays landing fees and air 

traffic control fees in Europe. 

• The Class One User has a customer who owns and operates aircraft in Europe, and therefore, pays 

landing fees and air traffic control fees in Europe. Only this customer shall have access to this 

data; this should be verified during the Class One audit. 

If the Class One User does not fiilfill at least one of these conditions, then that User is not authorized to 

receive any London data. 

10.3 

A Direct Subscriber shall ensure the London data access, use, and distribution restrictions defined is 

enforced. If the Direct or Indirect Subscriber violates this provision, the FAA's rights under section 15 

shall apply. 

10.4 

10 
A Direct Subscriber shall receive written approval from the FAA in order to receive the London data. 

Without this approval, the Direct Subscriber is only authorized to receive ASDI/NASSI data diat does not 

contain London data. 

10.5 

The Direct and Indirect Subscribers shall comply with the steps and condifions outlined in the current 

version of the Aircraft Situation Display To Industry: Functional Description and Interface Control 

Document in addition to this MOA. 

10.6 

If the Direct Subscriber receives London data, the audit will verify that only authorized users identified in 

section 10.2 have access to the data. The FAJ\ shall be the final arbiter for any disputes regarding the 

interpretation of this Section. 

11 RVR Data Terms and Conditions for Use 

11.1 

The RVR data shall only be used for flight planning purposes and situational awareness, and is not the 

official RVR. Only the RVR obtained from Air Traffic Control (ATC) is the OFFICIAL RVR. 

11.2 

All Direct Subscribers/Indirect Subscribers and their Users shall include the following disclaimer with 

RVR data (This includes but is not limited to passing-down or retransmission to pilots and/or dispatchers): 

• This RVR data shall only be used for flight plaiming purposes. The Runway 

Visual Range (RVR) obtained from Air Traffic Control (ATC) is the 

OFFICIAL RVR. 

11.3 

The Direct Subscriber/Indirect Subscriber shall ensure the RVR data terms and conditions for use defined 

in this MOA are enforced. If the Direct Subscriber/Indirect Subscriber violates this provision, the FAA's 

rights under section 15 shall apply. 

12 Exclusion of Warranties 

All warranties, expressed or implied, are excluded from this agreement and shall not apply to the data or 

services (including software compatibility) that the Direct and Indirect Subscribers receive under this 

11 
agreement. Specifically, all implied warranties of merchantability and "fimess for a particular purpose" for 

the data or services (including software compatibility) that the Direct Subscriber receives from the FAA are 

also excluded under this MOA. 

13 Limitation of Remedies 

The FAA shall not be liable to the Direct Subscriber, Indirect Subscriber, or any other entity for any loss, 

damage, claim, liability, expense, or penalty, or for any indirect, special, secondary, incidental, or 

consequential damages deriving from the use of the ASDI and/or NASSI data. 

14 Indemnification 

The Direct and Indirect Subscribers agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Government and its 

respective officers, employees, and agents, from and against all claims, demands, damages, liabilities, 

losses, suits, and judgments (including all costs and expenses incident thereto), which may accrue against, 

otherwise be chargeable to the Government by reason of, or as a direct and proximate result of, the Direct 

or Indirect Subscriber's use of the ASDI and/or NASSI data or software received under this agreement. 

15 Termination of this Agreement 

Any party may voluntarily terminate this MOA by written notice to the other party, provided no 

termination may be eflective in less than ninety (90) calendar days from the date of such written notice. In 

the event a Direct Subscriber ceases its business operations, they must notify the FAA within five (5) 

business days. If the Direct Subscriber, or any of its Indirect Subscribers, fails to abide by the requirements 

of this MOA, the Direct Subscriber's access to data covered under this MOA may be terminated 

immediately by the FAA for security or privacy issues. The FAA reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to 

reinstate a User's access to the ASDI and/or NASSI data feed if the User can satisfactorily demonstrate to 

the ASDI/NASSI POC that they are in compliance with the terms of the MOA. However, in all cases, the 

FAA reserves the right for termination to be final and permanent, with no opportunity for reinstatement. 

16 Disputes 

Where possible, disputes will be resolved by informal discussion between the parties. In the event the 

parties are unable to resolve any disagreement through good faith negotiations, the FAA Director of System 

Operations Programs, AJR-4, will resolve the dispute. This decision is final and binding.
