The manned traffic information service provides the information of the controlled manned traffic information to the USSPs so that it can support the UAS flight authorisation (activation) process as well as provide constraints in terms of situational awareness.

Manned Traffic Information Provision
U-space airspaces may be established in controlled airspace, so that, the USSPs require the situational
awareness to provide the U-space services maintaining the acceptable level of safety. Thus, the Common Information Service Provider (CISP) is responsible for providing static and dynamic data to enable the provision of U-space services for the management of traffic of unmanned aircraft.
According to Implementing Regulation (EU) 2021/665 in its article 1, section 2(a) air traffic services
providers shall provide on a non-discriminatory basis the relevant traffic information regarding manned aircraft
that is necessary as part of the common information services. Then, since it is common information the CISP
makes these data available to the USSPs so that the UAS operators are notified about incoming manned traffic
that may eventually result in a conflict with the UAS flight trajectory.
The manned traffic information service supports its functionality by providing an interface so that the USSPs
receive all the manned traffic within the U-space airspaces in controlled airspace. The CISP publishes the
information through a topic and therefore, all USSPs subscribed to the topic receive the same dynamic data.
Manned Traffic Data Update
This function consists of the CISP publishing the corresponding manned traffic information data updates while the USSPs subscribes to receive the proper information. The following Figure 4.1-1 shows a structural diagram of the service:
The information from Manned Traffic Information is sent to the USSPs.

Manned Traffic Information Performance Quality
Manned traffic information service shall achieve a quality that is sufficient to ensure the service is fit for providing manned traffic within controlled airspace to USSPs. The quality of service applies to manned traffic information reliability, and security.
In terms of performance, manned traffic information service shall comply with the minimum requirements that the regulation in the Acceptable Means of Compliance to Implementing Regulation (EU) 2021/664 ([10.]). Therefore, the manned traffic information should be made available with a latency that is lower than that necessary for the proper functioning of the traffic information service, as determined by the U-space airspace risk assessment, for at least 99 % of the time.
