The world ATM Congress on air traffic management, which ended last week, was marked by the presentation of a new product from Estonian developers. The concept of "remote tower" was implemented in a new, more versatile application.

The concept of the "remote tower" is the ability to control the movement of aircraft without the physical presence of the dispatcher at the airport tower. All data is collected on a single terminal and displayed on a single monitor. In this way the management system becomes more coordinated and secure.

Such systems have been used for a long time, for example, in Norway and Sweden, but the new solution from the state company Lennuliiklusteeninduse AS and the software developer Cybernetica makes it easy to adapt it to the needs of a particular country and tasks. The prototype is currently undergoing certification. The own product will allow Estonia to effectively regulate the skies over small regional airports, as well as enter the market with a competitive product.
