Query string parameters fill in the ibonav.aero NOTAM Search form and can run the search when the page opens. Use them to link to the NOTAMs of an aerodrome or FIR, or to one NOTAM. No login is needed.

Parameters

Parameter Value Fills / selects
location ICAO location indicator(s), comma-separated Aerodrome ICAO Location Indicator
fir ICAO location indicator(s), comma-separated FIR ICAO Location Indicator
atfn ATFN address(es), comma-separated ATFN Address
notam NOTAM number(s), comma-separated NOTAM Number, e.g. A1234/26
id NOTAM record ID Opens exactly one NOTAM (see below)
type international, military, us, comma-separated Type check boxes (us = US Domestic/FDC/TFR)
messageType (or msgtype) NOTAM, SNOWTAM, ASHTAM, Other, comma-separated Message Type check boxes
search 1 Runs the search when the page opens
  • location, fir, atfn and notam can be combined; the search applies all of them. At least one of them (or id) is needed for a search.
  • type and messageType: only the listed boxes are checked, the others are unchecked. Values are case-sensitive as written above. Without the parameter all boxes stay checked.
  • search runs the search only with the value 1.
  • The other filters (NOTAM type, series, Q-code, traffic, scope, purpose, vertical limits, validity period) cannot be set by query string; their defaults apply.
  • A NOTAM number is not unique worldwide: the same number can exist in several FIRs. Combine notam with fir or location, or use id.

id

id is the unique record ID of a NOTAM, as returned in the id field of the NOTAM API. With id and search=1 the page shows only that NOTAM; the other fields are ignored for that search. The ibonav.aero Interactive Map uses it in its NOTAM links.
