With the exponential increase in the volume of automatic dependent surveillance-broadcast (ADS-B), and other types of air traffic control (ATC) data containing spatiotemporal attributes, it remains uncertain how to respond to immediate ATC data access within a target area. Accordingly, an original multi-level disaggregated framework for airspace, and its corresponding information management is proposed. Further, a multi-scale grid modeling and coding mapping method of airspace information represented by ADS-B is put forth. Finally, tests on the validity of the 4D airspace-temporal grid we named as the GeoSOT-AS framework were conducted across key areas based on the development of an effective data organization method for ADS-B, or an effective algorithm for extracting relevant spatiotemporal data. Experimentally, it was demonstrated that GeoSOT-AS conforms to the existing Chinese specification of civil aeronautical charting and is advantageous for its low deformation and high practicality; furthermore, the airspace grid identification code modeling was less costly, and improved performance by >80% when used for ADS-B data extraction. GeoSOT-AS can thus provide effective reference and practical information for existing airspace data management methods represented by ADS-B and can subsequently be extended to other forms of airspace management scenarios.
