Solution PJ.02-W2-21 — Digital evolution of integrated surface management

The R&D activity covers the development (e.g. using new algorithms, artificial intelligence / expert systems) of procedures and required system support for an improved surface traffic management, including the extension of the A-SMGCS routing and the integration of inputs from airport DCB processes. This also covers as well the guidance assistance to both pilots and vehicle drivers using Airfield Ground Lighting (AGL), the consolidation of the ¿Follow-The-Greens¿ procedures, the exchange of information between ATC and vehicles/aircrafts using airport data link and other guidance means, and the development of enhanced airport safety nets for controllers beyond those delivered in SESAR 1.
