This article discusses both the problems of efficient use of the Russian airspace and the ways to solve the problems. The methods ofquality assurance while planning the aircraft movements are described in detail. It is shown that the effective usage of the available resources requires determination of the aircraft’s position during all phases of the flight, i.e. its 4D flight trajectory, with precise accuracy. This can be achieved by processing the information about the external factors affecting the aircraft, which is provided by weather forecast. However, the weather data required for processing is too big to be evaluated by conventional means within the reasonable time. To solve this problem, some modern technologies such as Big Data are used.
