Project description
New platform to boost runway safety
Growing airport traffic poses new challenges for aviation safety. A major safety threat is represented by runway incursion that is any presence of unauthorised entities on a runway. Despite the problem, there is a key issue for aviation safety as existing airport surface management systems don’t totally eliminate the risk. ADS-B technology has advanced safety nets whose ultimate version is SURF-A/IA a platform that performs against collision when all previous barriers have failed. The EU-funded VLD2-W2 STAIRS project will develop and demonstrate SURF-A/IA airborne platforms installed in aircraft during revenue flights to prevent runway collisions. The project will control the performance of the solution in the real environment and particularly in cases of false alarm.
