The Australian Airspace Monitoring Agency (AAMA) is one of a number of organisations the International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO) has approved as Regional Monitoring Agencies (RMAs) following global implementation of Reduced Vertical Separation Minimum (RVSM). These agencies ensure the safe use of specific airspace designated by regional agreement.
