air traffic management system (Aurora)

ATM automation: Adacel's Aurora is widely recognised as the most advanced automation system available for communications, navigation surveillance/air traffic management (CNS/ATM). In use worldwide for automation of Oceanic air traffic management and applicable to any airspace worldwide.

A step forward for air navigation providers: enables air navigation providers to deliver more efficient ATM services, increase controller productivity and maintain the highest level of safety

In operation worldwide:

• Adacel's Aurora was selected as the core automation software for the Advanced Technologies and Oceanic Procedures (ATOP) program that is modernising management of US Oceanic flight regions. ATOP will be the world's most advanced Oceanic system when fully implemented.
• Aurora will provide CNS infrastructure and workload reductions for the three US Oceanic centres in Anchorage, New York and Oakland.
• Also in operation in Portugal, Iceland and New Zealand.

Advanced features:

• automates flight data processing and minimises manual procedures
• large airspace areas and increasing traffic volumes are easily and efficiently managed
• automated real-time functions include conflict prediction, flight plan extrapolation and conformance monitoring, minimum safe altitude warning and automatic coordination between adjacent sectors and centres
• flight data interaction with a dynamic meteorological model allows accurate aircraft profiles to be predicted
• radar and non-radar data are seamlessly integrated
