- Description
- Surface Safety Industry Day Event Tuesday, June 6, 2023 SAVE THE DATE: Please join the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) on June 6, 2023, for an industry event focusing on how the agency can enhance situational awareness for Air Traffic Controllers (ATC) on the airport surface. A safe and efficient National Airspace System (NAS) begins and ends on the airport surface.� To ensure runway safety, air traffic controllers rely on situational awareness to help them understand aircraft positions in order to make decisions and predict future states so as to detect and avoid possible conflicts.� Existing technology at some airports provides situational awareness by enabling controllers to see the position, movement, and relative location of aircraft and ground vehicles on the airport surface movement area and approach and departure routes, including aural and visual safety alerts of potential runway collision situations.� Situational awareness is crucial during periods of low visibility when factors like weather may pose challenges.�� To further improve safety on the airport surface environment, the FAA is hosting an event to gain a better understanding of commercially available and production-ready industry solutions and capabilities that could enhance situational awareness for controllers.� The FAA is specifically interested in learning more about cost-effective technological solutions that may be viable for deployment at airports without existing surface surveillance capabilities.�� ��� The FAA embraces innovation to deliver vital air traffic services for safe and efficient use in the NAS.� ��Come help the FAA develop new solutions for increasing safety on our airport runways.�� Event Location Washington metropolitan area Event Overview Opening remarks from FAA ATO Executive Leadership Overview presentations on: Current state of runway safety risks Surface situational awareness needs Opportunities for industry to help Question and answer session for participants Registration Information All event participants must register to attend.� Event location details will be provided when registering for the event. Registration instructions and more event details will be forthcoming in a subsequent SAM.gov announcement that will be published about one month prior to the event. Questions?
