SBAS Core Claim Routing

Purpose

This note protects the core SBAS knowledge layer from overlap and source drift.

It does not define SBAS technical requirements. It owns only the routing rules: which note and source family should carry each kind of core claim.

Non-overlap rule

Do not duplicate detailed standards, service-provider, or operational claims here.

  • Core concept pages own concise explanations.
  • Source notes own extracted evidence and boundaries.
  • The standards matrix owns cross-source classification.
  • The operational validation dashboard owns regulator, ANSP, AIP, aircraft, and operator escalation.

Current source posture

The core SBAS layer is now suitable for institutional learning and source-routed analysis. It is not yet a fully extracted normative standards layer.

The source posture is:

  • Annex 10, Volume I is represented as a public-catalog-reviewed ICAO SARPs/technical-provisions routing note.
  • Doc 9849 is represented as an ICAO GNSS implementation-guidance routing note with public metadata and public working-paper signals.
  • DO-229 is represented as the airborne equipment MOPS routing note; detailed direct official-text extraction remains a high-value future target.
  • EASA ETSO-C145e/C146e is the preferred public article-approval source family for this skip-FAA cycle.
  • Service-provider child notes exist for major systems, but those notes do not prove procedure availability or operator approval.
  • The second core-solidification pass added service-performance, coverage, approach-capability, evidence-ladder, and receiver-mode routing notes without adding new detailed normative claims or long-reference website extraction.
  • The third core-solidification pass added mechanism routing for ranging/time reference, satellite orbit/clock corrections, ionospheric grid-correction context, correction timescales, integrity data/user bounds, and service-status/notice claims. It remains concept/routing-only and avoids long reference-website expansion.

Blocked claim patterns

Do not publish these patterns unless the relevant source family is extracted and linked:

Blocked patternWhy blocked
“SBAS guarantees LPV at airports inside coverage”service coverage does not equal procedure publication or aircraft/operator approval
“Protection level equals actual error”protection level is a conservative bound used for integrity/usability decisions
“Alert limit is a chart minimum”alert limits, procedure minima, and operational minima are different evidence layers
“A testbed model is an operational correction model”research validation is not service certification
“One SBAS system’s performance proves another system’s performance”systems differ by service definition, network geometry, ionosphere, and approval context
