Airside Tracker

The Aircraft and Vehicle Tracker provides live and post-flight tracking functionalities of aircraft and airside vehicles in the Terminal Manoeuvring Area (TMA) of an airport with ultra-high update rates. It is therefore used for ground vehicle tracking and to monitor flight movements even in terminal near areas of the airport. In the airspace live tracking of aircraft in the TMA can be observed to know at any time which aircraft are entering the airspace and on which Runway they will be landing.

Live Tracking

It is pos­si­ble to track air­craft and air­side ve­hi­cles (equipped with ADS‑B transpon­ders) in re­al-time with a gen­er­al ra­dius of 100NM around the air­port. Dif­fer­ent col­or­ing modes and high­light­ing with air­craft la­bels sup­port sim­ple recognition.

Post-Flight Tracking

The post-track­ing func­tion­al­i­ty is op­ti­mized to play-back cer­tain traf­fic sit­u­a­tions at dif­fer­ent speed lev­els and to vi­su­al­ize them di­rect­ly on the map. There are ad­di­tion­al func­tions to in­clude wind in­for­ma­tion to ob­serve spe­cif­ic aircraft/vehicle’s trajectories.

Data Quality

The Air­craft and Ve­hi­cle Track­er is op­ti­mized for the Ter­mi­nal Ma­neu­ver­ing Area (TMA) of an air­port. With the help of air­side-op­ti­mized Aero­fi­cial In­tel­li­gence ADS‑B re­ceivers, move­ments are avail­able with ul­tra-high up­date rates of ap­prox­i­mate­ly 1s.

Benefits

With its high res­o­lu­tion and the func­tion to play­back his­toric traf­fic sit­u­a­tions, the Air­side Track­er pro­vides var­i­ous ben­e­fits. Fur­ther­more, the sit­u­a­tion­al aware­ness is in­creased tremen­dous­ly through the use of the tool.
