Eurocae publishes ED-328 standard for geo awareness technical specifications

Standards agency Eurocae working group WG-105 Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) has published a new standard, ED-318 technical specification for geographical zones and U-space data provision and exchange. ED-318 standard provides recommended requirements for the processing of data, aiming to assist data providers and users in meeting their responsibilities.

Implementing Regulation (EU) 2019/947 mandates in its Article 15 that “when Member States define UAS geographical zones, for geo awareness purposes they shall ensure that the information on the UAS geographical zones, including their period of validity, is made publicly available in a common unique digital format”.

The Technical Specification for Geographical Zones and U-Space data provision and exchange will cover all aspects related to Data Provision and Exchange (i.e. data scope, quality requirements, data format and model, exchange of data through information service) in support of regulations (EU) 2019/947 and (EU) 2021/664.
