ED Decision 2022/022/R

UP-TO-DATE INFORMATION

(a)     It is the responsibility of the USSP to ensure that the data being consumed or referred to is the last available data set from the trusted source.

(b)     The USSP is not responsible for ensuring that the data being exposed by the trusted source is effectively the last available data. This responsibility lies with the trusted source.

RELIABILITY

(c)      The reliability of the data pertains mostly to the security, availability, and status reporting to the end user. USSPs should ensure that the UAS operator is presented with accurate information that has not been tampered with, and with information regarding the confidence level of the data where this is available at the source.

(d)     When MET data is provided using the standard MET products (such as METAR or aerodrome local report), the confidence levels are contained within the MET standards that define these products, as specified in ICAO Annex 3 ‘Meteorological Service for International Air Navigation’.
