Once the XML standard is set and agreed upon, AIXM and WXXM (etc) will enable applications to read and interpret the information making redundant the random short codes used in especially NOTAMs.
This essentially means that your chart application can create a line through a closed part of taxiway or strike through minima to approaches withdrawn by NOTAM, to name a few.
The future is in the hands of IT professionals, but they need data tat supports their cause, readable by machines, this format definition is the key. Unfortunately like many projects created and run at this level of authority, they take too long to come to fruit, meaning introductions into service is again delayed.
