Australia’s Advanced Control Tower Concepts Take Shape

admin — Fri, 02 Apr 2010 22:44:21 +0000

The fundamental design of Australia’s next generation of air traffic control towers has been completed in Melbourne under a contract awarded to a team led by Sensis and NAV CANADA.

The collaborative design effort involving engineering, technical and air traffic control specialists from both Airservices Australia and the Sensis Project Team took place over several months and will form the baseline for a world-leading system know as INTAS, or Integrated Tower Automation Suite.

INTAS, for the first time, amalgamates all control tower functions into a single, integrated system that presents relevant information on common operator workstations in the tower cab. The integrated capabilities include:

Air and surface surveillance
Flight data (virtual flight progress strips)
Air-ground and ground-ground communications
Weather radar and airport meteorological information
Textual and graphical aeronautical information
Digital Airport Terminal Information Service
Pre-Departure Clearance
Airport facilities and navigation aid monitoring
Airport lighting control
Tower cab environment and security controls

Integration of all these functions into a standard, configurable workstation with a common operator interface ends the proliferation of various standalone monitors, keyboards, strip bays and control panels that clutter today’s tower cabs.

Virtual flight progress strips, automated flight information exchange and intuitive touch-screen technology eliminates the need for paper strips and significantly reduces verbal coordination.

Brolair International is providing operational support, advice and guidance into the design of the INTAS controller functions, computer-human interface and data communications interfaces.
