GENERAL TIS-A INFORMATION
 NOTE: Aircraft without an operational transponder are invisible to TIS-A.
 WARNING:  
Do not rely solely upon the display of traffic information for collision 
avoidance maneuvering.  The traffic display does not provide collision avoidance 
resolution advisories and does not, under any circumstances or conditions, relieve the 
pilot’s responsibility to see and avoid other aircraft. 
 WARNING: 
 Do not rely solely upon the display of traffic information to accurately 
depict all of the traffic within range of the aircraft.  Due to lack of equipment, poor signal 
reception, and/or inaccurate information from aircraft or ground stations, traffic may be 
present that is not represented on the display. 
The Traffic Information Service (TIS-A) provides traffic advisory information to non-
TAS/TCAS-equipped aircraft.  TIS-A is a ground-based service providing the relative 
locations of all ATCRBS (Air Traffic Control Radar Beacon System) Mode-A and Mode-C 
transponder equipped aircraft within a specified service volume.  The TIS-A ground 
sensor uses real-time track reports to generate traffic notification.  The GPSMAP 
695/696 displays TIS-A traffic information on the Map Page.  Surveillance data includes 
all transponder-equipped aircraft within the coverage volume.  The GPSMAP 695/696 
displays up to eight traffic targets within a 7.5-nm radius, from 3,000 feet below, to 
3,500 feet above the requesting aircraft.
TIS-A VS. TAS/TCAS
The main difference between the Traffic Information System (TIS-A) and Traffic 
Advisory (TAS) or Traffic Collision Avoidance Systems (TCAS) is the source of surveillance 
data.  TAS/TCAS uses an airborne interrogator with a half-second update rate, while 
TIS-A utilizes the terminal Mode-S ground interrogator and accompanying data link to 
provide a five-second update rate.  TIS-A and TAS/TCAS have similar ranges.
