Figure 1. Data processing objectives using RTCA/DO-200A Objective Reference Verification Method (e.g., Inspection, Observation) Applicant’s Reference Document or ID Config. Control on Reference Document Objective Met Yes, No or Pending Notes Numerical reference Application of RTCA/DO-200A to operators 1-1 Before loading, the operator must ensure that the data complies with DQRs. AC a 1-2 The operator must document steps, if they have defined the requirements for completeness and timeliness. AC a) 1-3 Before loading, the operator must review status of all LOAs (or equivalent) within the data chain. AC a) 1-4 If performing data preparation or transmission, operator must comply with AC paras 10 and 11. AC 12 Relationship between RTCA/DO-200A, airworthiness approval and TSOA 2-1 For existing systems, the DQRs should be identified. AC 19b/(19a) 2-2 The DQRs must be under configuration control. AC 20 2-3 The DQRs must be consistent with intended function. AC b 2-4 Required assurance level for data process must be identified and consistent with intended use. AC 21 2-5 Changes to DQRs must be evaluated (major, minor, or no effect. Ensure processes are in place. AC b
