Traffic advisory - threat
The ADS-B traffic system defines (if available) the threat data, range, bearing, relative
direction, relative altitude, and altitude trend. Each traffic symbol is positioned at a
location representing the relative range and bearing to the ownship symbol.
Traffic Advisories that are outside the current range are indicated by a half-symbol at
the edge of the Display with the appropriate data block. Proximity Advisories and Other
Traffic that are outside of the current range are not displayed.
When multiple traffic symbols partially or completely overlap, the symbols are visually
stacked, with the highest priority alert data on top, obscuring the lower priority alert.
When a traffic symbol and the ownship symbol partially or completely overlap, the traffic
symbol and data block will overlay the ownship symbol.
4.1.4 Traffic Data Block
A data block is given for each reported traffic target displaying the relative altitude,
vertical trend, horizontal vector and flight ID. The data block text color is the same colors
