This document discusses area navigation (RNAV) and global navigation satellite system (GNSS) approaches, including:
1. The different types of GNSS approaches including LNAV, APV BaroVNAV, APV SBAS, and GBAS which provide varying levels of lateral and vertical guidance.
2. The requirements for instrument flight procedures and how approaches are designed based on aircraft categories and performance, obstacle clearance, and other factors.
3. How augmentation systems like SBAS and GBAS improve integrity and allow for approaches with vertical guidance (APV) or precision approaches (PA).
