ATM simulation and validation – critical capabilities to drive airport capacity enhancement
HungaroControl – the Hungarian air navigation service provider – drives an extensive air navigation research & development programme, coupled with simulation services to support prototyping and validation. As a consequence of air traffic growth globally, there is an increased need to explore alternative solutions to address current challenges. Simulation and validation are critical capabilities to identify, build and accelerate solutions that tangibly optimise capacity and support efficient airport operations. In recent years, HungaroControl has been making ground-breaking efforts to improve flight safety, optimise capacity, reduce operational costs and enhance environmental sustainability, not just for ATM industry, but also for airports and airport operators.

How do you improve the safety and reliability of people flow at an airport? By connecting to the cloud! Keeping people on the move in increasingly busy airports in a safe, pleasant, and efficient way is more challenging than ever. As escalators, autowalks and elevators play an increasingly vital role, data from this equipment can be monitored, analysed and displayed in real-time, to improve performance, reliability and safety. Cognitive learning can also help identify and predict faults before they even happen!
