FOREWORD
1. This document was prepared jointly by EUROCAE Working Group
44 “Aeronautical Databases” and RTCA SC-217 “Aeronautical
Databases”, and was approved by the Council of EUROCAE on 1 October
2015.
2. EUROCAE is an international non-profit making organisation in
Europe. Membership is open to manufacturers and users of equipment
for aeronautics, trade associations, national civil aviation
administrations, and, under certain conditions, non-European
organisations. Its work programme is principally directed to the
preparation of performance specifications and guidance documents
for civil aviation equipment, for adoption and use at European and
world-wide levels.
3. The findings of EUROCAE are resolved after discussion amongst
Members of EUROCAE and in collaboration with RTCA Inc, Washington
D.C., and/or the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE), Warrendale
PA, U.S.A., through their appropriate committees.
4. This document is technically identical to RTCA DO-272D.
Coordination has been achieved with RTCA SC-217 “Aeronautical
Databases”.
5. EUROCAE performance specifications and other documents are
recommendations only. EUROCAE is not an official body of the
European Governments. Its recommendations are valid as statements
of official policy only when adopted by a particular government or
conference of governments.
