”The International Civil Aviation Organization, a UN Specialized Agency, is the global forum for civil aviation. ICAO works to achieve its vision of safe, secure and sustainable development of civil aviation through cooperation amongst its member States. ” One of ICAO's mission is to produce standards so they can be easily used and applied by its member States.
192 States
Chicago Convention
18 Annexes
- Annex 4: Aeronautical Charts
- Annex 15 : Aeronautical information Services (AIS)

Support air navigation
• Corrupt or erroneous aeronautical information/data can potentially affect the safety of air navigation.”
Aeronautical Information Service
• To satisfy the uniformity and consistency in the provision of AI/D that is required for the operational use by computer-based navigation systems, States shall avoid standards and procedures other than those established for international use.”

In 1996 the provision of Air Navigation Services was divided
Regulator as Transport Canada Service Providers as NAVCANADA
(corporation)
Situation in Canada

LEGAL ISSUE
The format and use of AIS is changing: increased digital format and data chains-associated risks for integrity, accuracy, consistency of data– The group player is changing– The ambition are changing– The legal climate is changing
Legal issue (continued)
• Legal implication– Responsibilities and liability– Ownership of data –IP– What are the other legal aspect?
Intellectual property
• With separation of function like in Canada, – who owns the data?
• Private corporation or State data • Third party provider• Fees\(redevance)
• In principle no ownership of raw/factual data • May depend on national legislation on IP?• Value-added databases might be copyright protection?• Exemple:
- Australia, – Privatisation of AIS in CA, – Jeppesen – ICOA legal and institutional legal issue
