In 2018, the National Academies challenged the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to lead the development of an In-Time Aviation Safety Management System (IASMS). This IASMS would enable increasingly autonomous aviation operations by automating the safety monitoring, assessment, and mitigation functions currently performed manually as part of the Safety Management System (SMS) process. In this paper, we detail today's SMS processes. We will also be drafting a process flow of today's SMS based on the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO)'s guidelines. Furthermore, we will be developing bowtie diagrams for two use case scenarios identified by the Flight Safety Foundation (FSF) in their Disaster Monitoring and First Response studies.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
