The way aeronautical information is managed and disseminated must be modernized. Current aeronautical information services (AIS) methods for storing, publishing, disseminating, querying, and updating the volume of data required for the effective management of air traffic control have become obsolete. This does not contribute to preventing airspace congestion, which turns into a limiting factor for economic growth and generates negative effects on the environment. Owing to this, some work plans for improving AIS and air traffic flow focus on data and services interoperability to allow an efficient and coordinated use and exchange of aeronautical information. Geographic information technologies (GIT) and spatial data infrastructures (SDI) are comprehensive technologies upon which any service that integrates geospatial information can rely. The authors are working on the assumption that the foundations and underlying technologies of GIT and SDI can be applied to support aeronautical data and services, considering that aeronautical information contains a large number of geospatial components. This article presents the design, development, and implementation of a Web-based system architecture to evolve and enhance the use and management of aeronautical information in any context, e.g., in aeronautical charts on board, in control towers, and in aeronautical information services. After conducting a study into the use of aeronautical information, it was found that users demand specific requirements regarding reliability, flexibility, customization, integration, standardization, and cost reduction. These issues are not being addressed with existing systems and methods. A system compliant with geographic standards (OGC, ISO) and aeronautical regulations (ICAO, EUROCONTROL) and supported by a scalable and distributed Web architecture is proposed. This proposal would solve the shortcomings identified in the study and provide aeronautical information management (AIM) with new methods and strategies. In order to seek aeronautical data and services interoperability, a comprehensive aeronautical metadata profile has been defined. This proposal facilitates the use, retrieval, updating, querying, and editing of aeronautical information, as well as its exchange between different private and public institutions. The tests and validations have shown that the proposal is achievable.

Tools And Methods

The global transformations of the economy through the system of information technologies have led to the spread of new manifestations of crime, mainly in the areas of money transfer, foreign exchange transactions, international logistics schemes. Consequently, there is a need to develop highly effective tools and methods of law enforcement agencies in the sphere of economic law infringements. The purpose of the research is to investigate modern tools and methods used in the activities of law enforcement agencies in order to prevent economic law infringements. The research methods are as follows: systematization, generalization, analysis of the regulatory framework, the method of comparative analysis; system and logical analysis, method of information synthesis; quantitative method. Results. The means and methods of work of law enforcement agencies in the field of economic law infringements have been analyzed in the academic paper. A comparative analysis of the application of tools and methods of law enforcement agencies in the field of economic law infringements in European countries has been conducted. It has been noted that they have been experiencing significant structural and technological changes, which makes it possible to more effectively identify economic violations of the law and prevent their implementation in various spheres of economic activity. The necessity of introducing modern information and technological methods of work of law enforcement agencies in order to overcome the growing number of economic law infringements has been proved. The concept of modern tools and methods of counteraction to economic law infringements has been considered and the further development of system of means and methods of counteraction to economic law infringements has been offered. The results of the research can be used to study trends in the development of tools and methods of law enforcement agencies in the field of economic violations of the law.

The article systematizes legal acts at the international, Federal and departmental levels on the use of artificial intelligence in law enforcement. In particular, at the international level, the corresponding legal act, according to the author, should contain three components of legal regulation: 1) regulate the organization and construction of an artificial intelligence system between States; 2) determine the principles of functioning of artificial intelligence; 3) regulate the ethical issues of using artificial intelligence. The legal basis for the use of artificial intelligence systems in law enforcement at the Federal level, in addition to the Constitution of the Russian Federation, should be the Strategy for the development of the information society in the Russian Federation (Strategy) for 2017-2030, as well as some special Federal laws (for example, the Law of Moscow), which are designed to specify the mechanism for using the advantages of artificial intelligence in all spheres of public life, including law enforcement. The author notes that the mentioned strategy defines only the General provisions of the state policy on the development of information technologies and artificial intelligence technologies. At the same time, the implementation of national interests outlined in the Strategy is impossible without the effective work of law enforcement agencies, whose functioning, in turn, is impossible without a well-built system of interaction between information support and artificial intelligence. The final part of the paper presents some proposals for improving the legal regulation of the use of artificial intelligence in law enforcement, in particular, justifies the need to adopt a national Doctrine for the use of a Unified system of information support and artificial intelligence in the activities of law enforcement agencies.
