Number of loss of separations between IFR flights.
Aviation Safety
Outcome-related (Reactive or Lagging)
A primary responsibility of an ANSP is to provide separation between IFR aircraft. As such, IFR-IFR losses of separation (IFR-IFR LOS) are one of the most critical safety issues under analysis on a global scale.
Reporting methods (automatic or manual) and the way they are utilized are different across ANSPs.
Attribution of IFR-IFR LOS to ATM Ground versus ATM Airborne is not consistent.
