BADA - Base of Aircraft Data

The Base of Aircraft Data (BADA) is an Aircraft Performance Model (APM) developed and maintained by EUROCONTROL, with the active cooperation of aircraft manufacturers and operating airlines.
The BADA APM is designed for simulation and prediction of aircraft trajectories for purposes of ATM research and operations. Aircraft performance parameters and trajectories can be calculated using information and data contained in BADA.
To replicate reality in both operational and research modelling and simulation systems, each and every real aircraft needs a corresponding aircraft model.

ADEXP (ATS Data Exchange Presentation)

ADEXP is a format, not a protocol. No restrictions are imposed on the transmission media or protocols to be used, other than that of the character set. ADEXP provides a format for use in on-line, computer to computer message exchange and for message exchange over switched messaging networks (e.g. AFTN, CIDIN, AMHS).

ASTERIX (ATC standard)

ASTERIX  (short for  All Purpose Structured Eurocontrol Surveillance Information Exchange ) is a standard for the exchange of  air traffic services  (ATS) information. It is developed and maintained by the  European  ATS organization  Eurocontrol . ASTERIX not only stands for All-Purpose Structured Eurocontrol  Surveillance   Infor mation  Exchange but also represents a state-of-the-art surveillance  data  format which is nearly being adopted by the world users  community  as the universal  standard  in this  domain  today

EOBT-TOBT-TTOT-TSAT-CDM

EOBT is Estimated Off Blocks Time : The flight plan time for the flight to be ready for departure. ATC usually allow a tolerance of +/- 15 minutes. TOBT, Target Off Blocks TIme , is a more accurate measure, usually within +/- 5 minutes, which tells the local CDM system and NMOC Brussels when the airline believes a flight will be ready. From this, a TTOT is calculated (Target Take Off Time) , which may be adjusted to allow for departure separations, CTOT etc, and then working backwards will provide a TSAT (Target Start Approval Time) which will provide both ATC and the airline the most suitable start up time given all the factors that the local CDM system takes into account.
