Estonia leads Europe’s transition to digital NOTAM services with FREQUENTIS

Frequentis and EANS have successfully brought Digital NOTAM services into operational use with the Frequentis CADAS product suite. The deployment positions EANS among the first air navigation service providers in Europe to operate Digital NOTAM services.

This milestone reflects the growing momentum of digital AIM across Europe and the industry’s transition from traditional text-based information handling to a fully digital, integrated aeronautical data environment. By enabling structured, machine-readable aeronautical information, Digital NOTAM services improve safety, operational efficiency, and the seamless exchange of information across the aviation ecosystem.

“The commissioning of Digital NOTAM services marks another important step in our digital transformation journey,” says Tatjana Armulik, Head of the Aeronautical Information Management Department at EANS. “Together with Frequentis, we have established a modern digital AIM capability that enables us to provide faster, more accurate, and more consistent aeronautical information while preparing for future air traffic management (ATM) concepts.”

The implementation provides EANS with a common AIXM-based digital aeronautical data foundation for the efficient creation, management, and distribution of Digital NOTAM information. It also lays the groundwork for future concepts such as SWIM-enabled information exchange and Trajectory-Based Operations (TBO).

“Seeing EANS become one of the first air navigation service providers in Europe to bring Digital NOTAM services into operational use is an important milestone in the digital transformation of aviation,” says Josef Kutschi, Managing Director of Frequentis Comsoft. “We are proud to support EANS in taking a leading role in the digital transformation of AIM across Europe and helping to build the interoperable information services that will shape the future of ATM.”
