The SMARCOS dNOTAM review application was developed to allow pilots to review Notice To AirMen (NOTAM) information in a graphical, self-explanatory format. The mock-up application displays dNOTAM information for different flight phases pictorially instead of traditional text format. It was created according to User Interface guidelines and validated the novel User Interface concept for Electronic Flight Bags. The application aims to prepare for future aerospace services relying on digital distribution of information to pilots.

SMARCOS dNOTAM review application
The dNOTAM review application pilot was developed within the SMARCOS project in the area of the
Complex Systems Control. The dNOTAM review application is a low fidelity mock-up of a future system
which is supposed to serve pilots for comprehensible, self-explanatory, and fast review of NOTAM
(Notice To AirMen) information in pictographical form. dNOTAM (digital NOtice To AirMen) is information
disseminated among aircraft pilots’ community to alert them of any hazards en route or at a specific
location and is traditionally distributed in text format. The dNOTAM review mock-up application was
developed according the User Interface guidelines developed within the project framework and it was
used for validation of the novel User Interface for Electronic Flight Bags.
