Deployment Scenario Title

Digital evolution of integrated surface management

Deployment Scenario Description Digital evolution of integrated surface management: this covers the development (e.g. using new algorithms, AI/expert systems) of procedures and the required system support for improved surface traffic management, including the extension of the A-SMGCS routing functions and the integration of inputs from airport DCB processes. This Solution will also include the provision of guidance assistance to both pilots and vehicle drivers using AGL, consolidation of related procedures, exchange of information between ATC and vehicles/aircrafts using airport datalink services, and other means of guidance.
