The Network Technical Systems (NTS)
• The Flight Plan Management Systems
support the collection, validation and
distribution of the flight plan data required to
assess the demand on the global ATC system;
• The Flow & Capacity Management Systems
relate the demand to the available capacity
and in case of capacity shortfall propose
ATFCM measures;
• The Environment Data Management
Systems maintain and distribute the
(geographical) structure of the ATC system as
well as other shared information;
• The Service Layer Systems and Client
Applications allow external, as well as
internal, NM stakeholders to access and
Flight Plan Management Systems
The Initial Flight Plan Processing System
(IFPS): designed to rationalise the reception,
initial processing and distribution of flight plan
data related to civil aviation flights within the
area covered by the participating States.

Flight plan assistance tools (IFPUV): for
improving the quality of the flight plans submitted
to IFPS. The IFPUV is a separate system, totally
independent of the operational IFPS, providing
two main services:
o Flight Plan Validation: solely for the purpose of
submitting test Flight Plans.
o Route Generation: accepts a partial flight plan
as input and generates up to 10 alternative
routes, sorting them by cost.
The Flight Assessment and Alert System
(FAAS): designed to host various alerting
functions as required by member states
(ECAC) and the European Commission (EC).
o Safety Assessment and Alert System
(SAFA): alerts the competent authorities to
ensure that Aircraft Operators (AOs) or
specific Aircraft that have been banned by
the European Commission do not operate in
the European airspace.
o ACC3/CARGO: alerts the competent
authorities to ensure that Cargo Aircraft
Operators’ flights entering the European
airspace satisfy security regulations, for
departure airports in third countries.
The CallSign Similarity Tool (CSST): to
detect and de-conflict callsign similarities in an
automated manner; used by Aircraft Operators
(AOs) and the CallSign Similarity Management
Cell (CSMC) to help de-conflict flight
schedules.
Flow and Capacity Management Systems
The ENHANCED TACTICAL FLOW
MANAGEMENT SYSTEM (ETFMS)
• task of NMOC
– avoid overloading of airport and ATC
– optimise the usage of the airspaces
• How ???
Regulation:
– Delay (NMOC resp.)
– Rerouting (Airline resp.)
– Level capping (ATC)
– increase capacity of the environment

The Centralised SSR Code Assignment and
Management System (CCAMS): a tool to optimise the
allocation of SSR codes, based on profile information
(from flight plans), delay and suspension information, and
airborne information. CCAMS functionality is provided by
the ETFMS system.

The PREDICT system:
has the same functionality as ETFMS but it is used for
pre-tactical operations
uses archived information to assess the traffic
situation over the coming days
compares forecasted traffic and capacity to predict the
load situation for the following days (up to 6 days in
advance).
Scenarios can be implemented in this system in order
to assess the impact of ATFCM measures before
being applied in ETFMS.
