Open Meeting--Interactive Workshop

    The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) invites all interested 
stakeholders with a background in software development to attend an 
interactive workshop on System Wide Information Management (SWIM) at 
the state of the art NextGen Test Bed in Daytona Beach, FL. Join fellow 
developers as the FAA introduces and demonstrates current and new data 
services being made available from the agency's enterprise information 
gateway. Socializing new ideas on how to work with data from SWIM and 
what applications can be developed will be highly encouraged by the 
organizers.
    Participants to the workshop who have an existing graphical user 
interface that visualizes data are encouraged to bring their 
application to use during the workshop. Participants that do not have 
an interface may be provided one at no cost. All participants must 
bring their own hardware (laptop preferred) to use during the event.
    The FAA will be providing a connection to the Research & 
Development Data Domain allowing participants to engage and interact 
real time with data from SWIM in a non-operational environment. The 
following data types will be introduced and available to work with 
during the event:

 Notices to Airmen (NOTAM)
 Common Sourced Weather
 Terminal Data Distribution Services
 Flight Data Publication Services
 Traffic Flow Management Publication Services

    Participants will be highly encouraged to introduce ideas of how 
they would incorporate SWIM data into their operation or application 
both before and after working with the data types provided. For more 
information or to register, visit www.faa.gov/nextgen/swim.
    Space is limited so register early to secure a spot! Registration 
will close when all spots have been filled!

About SWIM

    System Wide Information Management (SWIM) is the FAA's data 
distribution backbone of NextGen, the Next Generation Air 
Transportation System. SWIM utilizes a ``one to many'' data 
distribution model, allowing easier access to more data, providing it 
to the right person, at the right time, in the format they want. SWIM 
utilizes industry standard service oriented architecture (SOA) 
technology to be interoperable with many types of applications capable 
of web service and java based messaging. The FAA is also leading the 
use of standard data exchange models such as Aeronautical Information 
Exchange (AIXM) and Flight Information Exchange (FIXM).

Director, NextGen Portfolio Management and Technology Development,
