5. DCP SE AOC Sub-team 5 Federal Aviation Administration 1 Feb 2013 SDB - Purpose Purpose of Subscriber Database Provides ADNS address for PDC, GREQ, DCC States when a DCC is to be sent –Initial Clearance only, Initial and Revised Clearance, etc Provides clearance type preferences –If preference is not stated in the ICAO flight plan –If preference stated in the ICAO flight plan is invalid Specifies the location and aircraft eligible to receive a PDC –ATO Safety confirms PDC eligibility at each site Provides a method to deny PDC eligibility (Lock) –ATO Safety determines if PDC eligibility should be denied –Eligibility can be denied by site, tail number, flight id, ADNS address, etc

6. DCP SE AOC Sub-team 6 Federal Aviation Administration 1 Feb 2013 SDB and ICAO FP ICAO Flight Plan Content –Optionally specifies the clearance type (DCL/PDC/Both) –Does not provide the address for the Dispatch message, Gate ID Request message or a PDC. Hierarchy for Information from ICAO FP and SDB –ICAO FP will take precedence over Web Access. ICAO FP is checked for Clearance Type first –IF Clearance preference is available in FP Types of Dispatch Copies (CC) are retrieved from the SDB ADNS address for CC is retrieved from the SDB –No clearance preference available Clearance preference is retrieved from the SDB Types of Courtesy Copies are retrieved from the SDB ADNS address for CC is retrieved from the SDB –Voice clearance is issued if the clearance type (DCL, PDC) is NOT specified in the ICAO flight plan or SDB

7. DCP SE AOC Sub-team 7 Federal Aviation Administration 1 Feb 2013 SDB Web Access Web Access provides a secure method to access the SDB –AOC/CSP directly manipulates their subscriber data –Date access is restricted by AOC/CSP logon identity –AOC may only need to access SDB for initial set up –CSP/AOC cannot specify PDC for an ineligible site Concept of Operation –CSP/AOC logs in to Web Access SDB –CSP/AOC creates/modifies/deletes records to specify: Clearance type preference(s) Dispatch message option(s) Gate Request preference ADNS address –CSP/AOC accesses SDB only when changes are required SDB User Guide –Initially, no intent to create a User Guide –User Guide most likely available after ver 12 release
