There is the DUAT service which I use to obtain a flight briefing before
going to the field and hopefully avoid a blunder with TFR's. It can be
filtered so as not to check the entire US airspace.
From a quick glance DUAT does more or less exactly the same as AIS does
over here - lets you select relevant NOTAMS by date/time and location and
presents them as text.
However, we can also get the same information in machine-readable form
and display it on a map, representing NOTAMS by the circles or polygons
used to define the area that's NOTAMed. You click on the map to read the
text for a NOTAM. We can also add a task we're planning for a visual
check on clashes. Is there any move in the USA to support a similar
capability?
