Aeronautical Software Developments Ltd. (ASD) specializes in developing solutions for procedure design and aerodrome safeguarding. ASD helps organizations streamline their processes, enabling designers to utilize ICAO 8168 PANS-OPS and FAA TERPS procedure design criteria.
The company’s flagship product, PDToolkit, is a comprehensive suite designed for procedure designers. PDToolkit supports the full procedure design life cycle as described in ICAO Doc 9906. Its tools include conceptual design, aerodrome safeguarding, simplified construction of complex design surfaces, and full integration with CAD platforms like Bentley MicroStation and AutoDesk’s AutoCAD MAP 3D. The software is tailored to meet the needs of aerodrome, airspace, and procedure design requirements.
ASD’s customers include national civil and military aviation authorities, as well as specialist IFP consultants and ANSPs. In recent years, ASD has focused on automation and end-to-end procedure design with one-click analysis. Supporting the AIXM 5.x standard is key to our interoperability, facilitating closer cooperation with partners in AIS and charting domains
