Published airspace is not always active. Live colours each area by its status in your time window, from NOTAMs and AUP/UUP, so you see when an area on your route is quiet.
Published is not the same as active
A restricted or danger area on the chart may be active only a few hours a week. Whether it is active today depends on NOTAMs, the daily Airspace Use Plan (AUP) and its updates (UUP), and the schedule in the AIP. Checking all three by hand for every area along a route is slow, and easy to get wrong.
How Live shows it
DYNAM, the data line behind NOTAMbriefing.com, combines those sources for every airspace in the coverage area. Live colours each airspace by its status in your Activity range: active, scheduled or inactive. Inactive areas are dimmed, so the ones that matter stand out. The same status appears in the airspace details, next to its activation calendar, and in your briefing.
Common questions
Where does the activation status come from?
From official sources: NOTAMs from the EUROCONTROL European AIS Database, the AUP/UUP from the EUROCONTROL Network Manager, and schedules from the national AIPs and AIP Supplements. If the map and an official source ever disagree, the official source is right.
Do I need Live to see the airspace itself?
No. Guests and free accounts see every airspace with its published limits and the NOTAMs that affect it. Live adds whether it is active in your time window.
