JEPPESEN Terrain/Obstacle Data Service SKU: JPSN-AVDATA-TRNOBSTCL

JEPPESEN Terrain and Obstacle Data Services include terrain and obstacle data used for instrument procedure design and evaluation of obstacle restrictions on or near aerodromes and heliports. 

The Terrain Database provides the latest generation of terrain data for prevention of controlled flight into terrain and terrain avoidance warning systems intended for use by by pilots, dispatch, and other flight operations planners. It was developed for use in current TAWS and future applications, vertical situation displays, and synthetic vision systems. The Obstacles Database is the world’s most complete database of aviation-related obstacles including man-made and natural obstacles from digital and paper sources (governmental civil aviation authorities and military agencies) worldwide. Both terrain and obstacle data are supplied for the selected geographic area under a data license agreement for a specified period.

Orders for these databases and their updates are fulfilled by AVIATIONEU TRAINING SYSTEMS & SERVICES which offers aviation database services, in cooperation with respective database providers, on a simplified subscription-based ordering process saving man effort, time and costs for customers. Please contact us for additional information and quotation.

Jeppesen Terrain and Obstacle Data Services include Terrain Data and Obstacle Data. 

For many years, Jeppesen has used electronic terrain and obstacle data for instrument procedure design and evaluation of obstacle restrictions on or near aerodromes and heliports. 

Jeppesen Terrain Database

The Jeppesen Terrain Database provides the latest generation of terrain data for prevention of controlled flight into terrain and terrain avoidance warning systems to be used by pilots, dispatch, and other flight operations planners. The Jeppesen Terrain Database was developed as a new worldwide terrain database providing a consistent terrain model that can be used by current TAWS and future applications, including 2D moving maps, vertical situation displays, and synthetic vision systems. The basis for the Jeppesen Terrain Database is the Shuttle. The benefits offered by the Jeppesen Terrain Database include:

• Provides a global, uniform high quality terrain data source

• Base terrain layer resolution meets the basic accuracy requirements of US FAA Technical Standard Order C151b, Terrain Awareness and Warning Systems, and Area 1 under ICAO Annex 15

• Voids in SRTM data filled by Jeppesen proprietary topography algorithms

• Users of the Jeppesen Terrain Database are able to trace any elevation value back to its original source data via graphical “metadata” that is delivered with the data

• Jeppesen terrain data is produced, maintained and distributed in accordance with the data process assurance level 3 requirements established by RTCA Document DO-200A, Standards for Processing of Aeronautical Data.

Jeppesen Obstacles Database

Jeppesen has built the world’s most complete database of obstacles relevant to aviation. The worldwide database contains man-made and certain natural obstacles extracted from digital and paper (graphic and tabular) sources provided by governmental civil aviation authorities and military agencies worldwide. The data includes significant US Federal Aviation Regulation (FAR) Part 77 and ICAO Annex 4 obstacles. The obstacle database accommodates discrete obstacles and line obstacles, such as power lines. Jeppesen has designed its production processes to comply with RTCA DO-200A, Standards for Processing Aeronautical Data. Obstacles in the Jeppesen database contain the following attributes:

• Obstacle type

• Geographic coordinates (latitude/longitude)

• Elevation MSL

• Coordinate datum (if known)

• Height AGL

• Number of structures per obstacle (if known)

• Lighting (if known)

• Vertical and horizontal accuracy (if known)

Data License Agreement

Jeppesen supplies terrain and obstacle data under a data license agreement for a specified period of mutual commitment. Under this arrangement, Jeppesen provides to the customer a database of terrain and obstacles for the selected geographic area, monitoring changes to source material on a continual basis and updating the information as it is received.

Orders for these databases and their updates are fulfilled by AVIATIONEU TRAINING SYSTEMS & SERVICES which offers aviation database services, in cooperation with respective database providers, on a simplified subscription-based ordering process saving man effort, time and costs for customers.
