COM 05 Automatic Terminal Information Service (ATIS)
Part 1 Preliminary Material
1 Introduction
1.1 Under the terms of Article 205 (1) of the Air Navigation Order, any Air Traffic Service Equipment is required to have CAA approval before being established or used in the United Kingdom.
1.2 The purpose of an Automatic Terminal Information Service (ATIS) is to reduce Air Traffic Control (ATC) workload by the use of a means other than the controller’s VHF air-ground communications frequency to convey current and routine meteorological and aerodrome information to aircraft.
1.3 ATIS may be implemented by Voice-ATIS or data link (D-ATIS). An aerodrome Voice-ATIS may be provided by an Air Traffic Service Provider, using either a dedicated VHF transmitter or a CVOR/DVOR transmitter. A D-ATIS may be provided by an Air Traffic Service Provider, in conjunction with a data link communication Service Provider, using a VHF ground station network or by satellite.
2 Scope
2.1 This document sets out the engineering requirements for Voice-ATIS and D-ATIS used within the United Kingdom in support of an Air Traffic Control Service.
2.2 For the purpose of this document, ATIS is only considered to include the collation of meteorological and aerodrome data, the preparation of messages and the transmission of the messages.
2.3 The UK Meteorological Authority is responsible for the regulation of meteorological services to aviation. The use and processing of meteorological information within an ATS unit is subject to regulation by the SRG Air Traffic Standards Division (ATSD). Further information about the regulatory arrangements for meteorological equipment and services can be found in Part C, Section 4, MET and CAP 746 Meteorological Observations at Aerodromes.
2.4 The origination of meteorological reports and other related information is regulated by the U.K. Meteorological Authority. Automatic Terminal Information Service (ATIS) equipment and the content of ATIS broadcast messages is regulated by ATSD.
