A Prototype System for Aviation Safety Information Exchanges Based on International Comparative Research

Focusing on aviation safety information exchanges among different countries and international organizations in order to prevent air accident globally, a comprehensive comparison among relevant laws, regulations, taxonomies and database structures for aviation safety information adopted by ICAO, EU and China was made, and a prototype system for aviation safety information exchanges between the CAAC system and the ECCAIRS system used in EU and ICAO was developed. The prototype system implemented bi-directional aviation safety information exchanges with satisfactory experimental results. The research proved its feasibility to exchange aviation safety information between the CAAC system and the ECCAIRS system at a technical level. Recommendations was put forward to facilitate the international exchanges of aviation safety information in the future. As a successful scientific co-operation between China and EU, the research and development project showed a bright co-operative future in this field.
