manageHeading

The interface definition has been compiled taking into account the operational cases listed below. For completeness reasons the possible parameters, for such situations, to be passed in the RequestHeading input are indicated as well:
• Present Heading (uplink possible)
• Assigned Heading – relative or absolute true/magnetic heading (uplink possible)
• Non-specified Heading; use track direction as heading and update trajectory with this value (no uplink possible)
• Heading to avoid weather, for example CBs; use track direction as heading an generate an observed tactical trajectory with it (no uplink possible)
In the first three cases above, the type of heading closure is mandatory in the request. The following cases have been distinguished in case the application limit and trajectory resuming point are included in the request:
• No application limit and rejoining point specified in the input: a default application limit will be applied and the trajectory will be closed based on pre-defined closure rules.
• Application limit specified as distance and rejoining point present in the request: the specified distance and rejoining-point will be applied.
• Application limit specified as “Indefinite”: the system will auto-close the trajectory at AoR exit.
In all cases, the input heading is considered as magnetic heading.
