TRA Info Hub Austria
The TRA Info Hub is the central operations and information platform for Temporary Reserved Airspaces in Austria. It combines manual TRA activations by clubs with automatically imported sources such as Air Use Plan, NOTAMs and ATIS, and turns them into maps, archives, widgets and interfaces.
Current product state
v0.6.0
Pilot operation since 2025, productive for TRA coordinators and connected community tools.
Operations
Authorised club roles activate, extend or document TRAs through dashboard, history and admin functions.
Interfaces
Structured status data is available for XContest, XCTrack, widgets, APIs and further external integrations.
Maps
The XC Airspace Map shows TRA, AUP and AIP airspaces with country filters, altitude filters and daily status.
Current state

Known limits of the history
- Air Use Plan data is reliably available in the archive from 05 July 2025.

- LOXZ data has been partially available since 01 September 2025 and is handled separately for the Zeltweg special case.
- The platform supports flight preparation but does not replace official sources such as Homebriefing, current NOTAMs or Austro Control publications.
What will be expanded next
- More external integrations for vario manufacturers, apps and platforms.
- Refinement of map views, airspace boundaries, labels and airspace visualisation.
- Expansion of the German and English interface and clearer texts for international use.
- More diagnostics and quality indicators for source status, conflicts and missing daily data.
