It turns these measurement data into information  useful to FAA facilities through an architecture that features:  • Automatic collection and analysis of radar tracks and flight plans, Automatic generation and distribution of daily morning reports, • Sharing of data and reports among facilities, and Support for exploratory and causal analysis. Risk Analysis Tool  The Risk Analysis Tool is used during the Risk Analysis Process to quantify the level  of risk present in any air traffic incident. The Risk Analysis Tool is used to capture  any associated causal, systemic, and contributing factors. The Risk Analysis Tool  produces a numerical value of severity and repeatability on a risk matrix.  Using the Risk Analysis Tool, the Risk Analysis Process provides a method for  consistent and coherent identification of risk elements and allows users to prioritize  actions designed to reduce the effect of those elements.  Operations Network  The Operations Network is the official source of NAS air traffic operations and delay  data. The data collected through the Operations Network are used to analyze the  performance of the FAA’s air traffic control facilities traffic count and delay  information, air traffic control tower and Terminal Radar Approach Control  operations, etc.  Facility Directives  Repository  This database contains Letters of Agreement, Standard Operating Procedures, and  facility orders for all facilities nationwide.  Voluntary Reporting  Aviation Safety Reporting  System  The Aviation Safety Reporting System collects voluntarily submitted aviation safety  incident/situation reports from pilots, controllers, and other personnel. It identifies  system deficiencies, and issues messages to alert individuals in a position to correct  the identified issues.  Aviation Safety  Program  Action  The Aviation Safety Action Program promotes voluntary reporting of safety issues  and events that come to the attention of employees of certain certificate holders. It  includes enforcement-related incentives to encourage employees to voluntarily  report safety issues, even though the issues may involve an alleged violation of Title  14 of the Code of Federal Regulations.  Air Traffic Safety  Program  Action  The Air Traffic Safety Action Program is a non-punitive, voluntary reporting program  modeled after the Aviation Safety Action Program for employees delivering air traffic  services. It allows for employees to submit safety concerns and deficiencies so  issues can be resolved before a major error occurs. This voluntary reporting helps  promote a strong safety culture within the ATO.  TechNet  The TechNet website provides a means for expediently distributing NAS operational  information within the FAA. It contains information such as NAS delay information  by service (e.g., automation, surveillance, navigation, communication) and active  equipment outages (i.e., full interruptions to service).  Technical Operations  Safety Action Program  The Technical Operations Safety Action Program is a voluntary, non-punitive safety  reporting program for ATO Technical Operations Services personnel. Employees at  the point of service have a unique understanding of safety and can better identify  threats and risks to their particular operations. By studying the data gained from  voluntary reports, safety issues can be more efficiently identified and mitigated.
