 
Airport Organiser serves as an integrated part of A-SMGCS. Its modern technology, certified for civil aviation, results in system architecture with an interface to existing surveillance infrastructure such as surface movement radar and multilateration.
With point-to-point communication between ATC, vehicles and coordinators, Airport Organiser brings the airport system to the highest level of A-SMGCS defined by Eurocontrol and ICAO.
Airport Organiser provides ADS-B between mobile users and ATC. Together with Traffic Information Service-Broadcast (TIS-B) and point-to-point communication, it provides the time-critical information necessary to satisfy the most demanding requirements for a safe airport system.
Airport Organiser addresses three users on the airport: ATC operation, vehicle operation, and coordinators.
Extremely reliable and accurate ADS-B information combined with point-to-point communication enables the following features to be developed for ATC:
-
ADS-B, providing position, ID and intention for a complete surveillance picture of all ground movements
-
Predictability and robustness in the operation.
-
Conflict detection and warnings for preventing runway incursions.
-
Point-to-point communication, allowing routing, guidance and control of vehicle movements.
-
Restricted area allocation, for safe and efficient runway operations.
-
Confirmation and control of ground movement activities.
Airport Organiser offers solutions for vehicles within follow-me, snow clearance, friction testing, rescue, maintenance, etc. Surface operation requires higher efficiency to increase capacity within the safety regulations. Airport organiser improves safety and increases efficiency.
Features for the vehicle operator
- Digital moving map, presenting surrounding traffic to the driver for situational awareness and visual route guidance with restricted area allocation.
- Conflict detection and warning functions to prevent route or area deviations and runway incursions.
- Object positioning and localisation for immediate reaction.
- Point-to-point communication, enabling routing, guidance, control and confirmation of missions.
Features for the vehicle coordinator
- Airport surveillance, ADS-B, routing, guidance and control of vehicles.
- Vehicle assignment and confirmation of tasks, for safer communication.
- Temporary restricted area allocation, for safe and efficient operation.
- Object positioning, for rapid target localisation.
- Conflict detection and warnings, for safe operation.
- Statistics for optimising runway and taxiway activities.
