NON-AUTHORITATIVE SOURCE

(a)A non-authoritative source may be an organisation other than those defined in point 32 of Annex I, but providing and/or publishing data derived from data gathering or measuring performed (e.g. by aircraft operators, air crew, DAT providers, or other similar operational organisations, or a combination thereof), transforming various sources to provide aeronautical data which conform to relevant standards and DQRs as specified by the airspace end users.

(b)When validating data from a non-authoritative source, the FPD provider should proceed by using either additional information sources to validate this data (like satellite imagery, data or manuals from other providers, users, military, etc.), or data which has been tested and confirmed through operations.

(c)The first known FPD provider that uses data coming from other (non-authoritative) sources in the aeronautical data chain accepts the responsibility of the data originator (i.e. ensuring that the data meets the DQRs).
