ATM-X/DIP Workshop on Architecture and Data Integration Services
November 23, 2021
On November 17, 2021, the Air Traffic Management Exploration (ATM-X) Project’s Digital Information Platform (DIP) Sub-Project held their first in a series of workshops intended to dive deeper into the technical concepts and core features. This session focused on the functional architecture of the platform and the data integration services that are being developed and will be demonstrated in DIP’s first collaborative demonstration scheduled for mid-July, 2022. The objective was to inform potential collaborators of how registered services would search for, and discover, data integration and aviation services on the platform. Participants were walked through NASA’s reference implementation of a data integration service that provides fused data available for service providers to consume. The virtual workshop hosted over 150 attendees, spanning federal and state government agencies, airport authorities, and industry solution providers enabling traditional and emerging operations. The attendees participated in live dialogues with the panel, providing insight and feedback on how their use cases, needs, and challenges can be addressed by DIP. This was a beneficial forum to engage with stakeholders to further inform them about the DIP architecture and raise interest to collaborate in the partner services demonstrations.
