Coordination with EC: Following ACAC General Assembly decision n° 24 & 29 (2004):
• Open discussion with European Commission to prospect for cooperation in the use of EGNOS and GALILEO in the Arab region
• 3 ACAC / EC meetings during which the technical solutions for EGNOS extension have been reviewed
ACAC General Assembly decision 25 (2006): To organize a ACAC / EC meeting on the study sponsored by the GJU regarding the expansion of EGNOS to Middle East region
GNSS Workshop Riyadh – Saudi Arabia (2008) organised by ACAC: provided latest development on EGNOS extension over ACAC area.
ACAC General Assembly decision n° 9 (2010): ACAC participation to the SIRAJ project approved & Designation of a representative from each members state to work in the project
Coordination with ICAO: ACAC coordinates with the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) MoC ICAO/ACAC have been signed on 27 September 2010

ACAC Objectives
ApproachThe policy context for the GNSS service implementation over ACAC is being developed around the following major axes:• ICAO GNSS policy - A37• ICAO office and PIRG GNSS policy• The Euro-Med PROJECT RTAP (Regional Transport Action Plan) action 27

ACAC Strategy (Approach and Landing)
APIRG GNSS Strategy• Short term – 2008/2012
o Basic GNSS with Barometric Altimetry• Medium term – 2013/2016:
o Basic GNSS with ABASo SBAS

REM Concept Overview
The Regional Extension Module (REM) is the solution for the integration, monitoring and control of the additional RIMS deployed for the extension.
REM :Is linked to EGNOS core system (Europe)
Is based on additional RIMS covering a service area outside ECAC
Provides a level of monitoring and control to the Region
Is able to be isolated from European network and processing

The Regional EGNOS Operator should be in charge of:Regional infrastructure (RIMS, network, control center)
Managing regional sites hosting the infrastructures and associated logistics aspects
Some maintenance activities
• First line maintenance and troubleshooting activities• Planned maintenance activities
Regional system performance monitoring
The Regional EGNOS Service Provider should be in charge of:
Relationship with regional users
NOTAM generation
Regional end user performance monitoring

System and application certification can rely on ICAO Applicable to ACAC
Airworthiness: Based on each State regulations?
Based on new common regulations?
Based on other regulations (Europe, US…)?
As from regulatory view point, in the ACAC Region:Each country has its own regulatory framework
ACAC does policy and assists States in its application
ACAC has Arabic institutional legal aspects but no common regulation over ACAC States
The only common entity is the Arab League, but does nor address aviation at regulatory level

• If a dedicated tool is developed for ACAC region, who will operate it?
Regional Service Provider?
Validation and validation of those NOTAM by each AIS? Central AIS?
