RAiM Prediction
RAIM Prediction predicts if GPS coverage is available for your current location
or at a specified waypoint at any time and date. RAIM performs checks to
ensure that the GTN unit has adequate satellite geometry during your flight.
RAIM availability is near 100% in Oceanic, En Route and Terminal phases
of flight. Because the FAA’s TSO requirements for non-precision approaches
specify significantly better satellite coverage than other flight phases,
RAIM may not be available when flying some approaches. The GTN unit
automatically monitors RAIM during approach operations and warns you if
RAIM is not available. In such cases, use a non-GPS based approach. RAIM
prediction helps you plan for a pending flight to confirm GPS operation during
an approach.
RAIM prediction only predicts the availability of Fault Detection (FD)
integrity in the absence of SBAS corrections. It cannot predict the availability
of LPV or L/VNAV approaches. The FAA provides a NOTAM service for LPV
approach availability.
