Both are two vital sectors within the aviation industry – all management of arriving and departing aircraft is of course essential for the safety of both passengers and staff.
Furthermore, ATC/ATM has the potential to assist in increasing an airport’s capacity, therefore enhancing revenue generation and traffic growth. By processing flights more efficiently, an airport could increase its output; greatly enhancing its future potential.
Of course this cannot come at a cost to safety, so within this core topic International Airport Review details how airports, air navigation service providers (ANSPs), airport operators and airport authorities are balancing the need for stringent safety policies with the want to increase capacity, using new technologies, automation, updated regulations and revised management systems.

EUROCONTROL Network Manager's alarming system ensures that unsafe aircraft are detected before they enter European airspace.
Intelligent Approach works by dynamically calculating the optimum time between arriving aircraft based on their type and the prevailing weather conditions.
Following the challenging summer of 2018, where a record number of flights placed a strain on parts of Europe’s air traffic management network, ANSPs across Europe are stepping up their collaboration.
A new version of EUROCONTROL's ESCAPE air traffic control simulator will facilitate academic research around the world and improve future training.
The EUROCONTROL ‘Challenges of Growth 2018’ study predicts there will be a lack of capacity at European airports in 2040 preventing around 1.5 million flights from flying. Such a lack of capacity could mean 160 million passengers would not be able to travel with a potential economic loss of around…
David McMillan, Chair of the ATM Policy Institute, says that the development and digitalisiation of the air traffic management industry is a change that has taken a long time to be accepted industry wide, and this ongoing development can only happen with continued liberalisation within the industry.
Droniq provides a technical platform to track drones, enabling flights beyond the visual line of sight of the pilot in the future.
CANSO says that network approach, new technologies and a performance-based regulatory framework is key to improving the future of Europe's ATM.
CANSO highlights how best practice developed for the region by the region is increasingly effective in addressing common issues.
