CMAC Newsletter EUROCONTROL Directorate Single Sky April 2011 I N°10 (ANSPs) and manufacturers on the demonstration of their compliance with the SES interoperability regulation. Edition 2.0 was published on March 2nd, 2011 and was prepared by the SES Unit from the Directorate Single Sky in EUROCONTROL with the support of the conformity assessment task force (CATF). Some military systems may be used as part of the European Air Traffic Management Network (EATMN) and they are addressed by this document: Although the interoperability Regulation does not directly apply to military operations and training, consideration must be given to civil-military interfaces covered by the interoperability Regulation and in a wider sense, military organisations providing services to general air traffic (GAT). Typically, a demonstration of compliance is required but the procedure may vary. Regulation (EC) N° 552/2004 of the European Parliament and Council has been adopted to ensure the interoperability of systems, constituents and associated procedures of the European Air Traffic Management network. Regulation n° 552/2004 is known as “the interoperability Regulation”. European Air Traffic Management Network (EATMN) systems are listed in the interoperability regulation and they are subject to conformity assessment procedures. In other words, these are the procedures to be followed to verify compliance of EATMN systems and constituents. EUROCONTROL has updated its guidelines on conformity assessment for the interoperability Regulation. This document aims at guiding the air navigation service providers EUROCONTROL guidelines on conformity assessment for the interoperability regulation of SES Interoperability Regulation 552/04 Annex 1 1 ASM Systems 2 ATFM Systems 3 ATS Systems 4 COM Systems 5 NAV Systems 6 SUR Systems 7 AIS Systems 8 MET Systems HMI Systems FDPS SDPS G/G Com.
