Honeywell NAVITAS is a collection of task-oriented systems\nthat enables airports to more seamlessly digitize, visualize and automate\neveryday operations such as orchestrating an aircraft\u2019s final approach,\nlanding, taxi-in for arrivals, turnaround, pushback, taxi-out, line-up and\ntake-off for departures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Honeywell NAVITAS is designed to meet the challenging\nrequirements of modern aviation with the latest technologies like artificial\nintelligence, machine learning, big data, cybersecurity and leveraging human\ncentered design principles. The SoS offering is comprised of nine \u201cmanagers,\u201d\nor dedicated systems, available within the full suite, including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  • Engineering Manager: Provides the airport or air\ntraffic engineering team with a more comprehensive insight to communication\naids, navigational aids, visual aids and weather aids.<\/li>
  • Surface Manager: Provides airport safety\nsupport, routing and guidance services for Air Traffic Control (ATC) to help\nsafely manage clearance services to aircraft and vehicles and expedite and\nmaintain an orderly flow of traffic even during low visibility conditions.<\/li>
  • Surveillance Manager: Provides identification\nand accurate position information of aircraft, vehicles and unauthorized\ntargets on airport surfaces and in approach.<\/li>
  • Lights Manager: Provides a more comfortable\nworking environment for tower controllers and airfield technicians through a\ncomputerized control and monitoring system for airport lighting equipment,\nwhich is a distributed and scalable system that stands out due to its\nhigh-speed operation, redundancy, and easier integration with further\nsubsystems.<\/li>
  • Tower Manager: An Integrated Tower Working\nPosition (ITWP) that incorporates unique elements, like strip-less ATC workflow\nautomation tool, electronic flight strip, ground situation display, air\nsituation display, airfield ground lighting and voice communication system, and\nall others in a single display.<\/li>
  • Performance Manager: Creates a repository of all\noperational information of airport surfaces covering data originating from\nmultiple sources, to show metering and performance metrics of different areas\nlike runways, taxiways, aprons and gates. Provides real-time dashboard\nsupporting Airport Collaborative Decision-Making (A-CDM).<\/li>
  • Turnaround Manager: Delivers higher gate\nefficiency and optimized throughput to support smoother operation of arrivals\nand departures at gates through an automated gate management system.<\/li>
  • Arrival\/Departure Manager: Facilitates more\nefficient sequencing and times to promote smooth traffic flow, both arrivals\nand departures.<\/li>
  • Integration Manager: Receives and transmits data\nover multiple interfaces through an air traffic management (ATM)-grade\nintegration engine while prioritizing, merging and recording data in a reliable\ndata storage sub-system to help enable system wide information management.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    \u201cThe Honeywell NAVITAS suite helps create more resilient,\nagile and efficient airports,\u201d said Philipose Jacob, general manager, Global\nAirports, Honeywell Building Technologies. \u201cCreating the airport of the future\nrequires a strong operational backbone that prioritizes safety, experience and\nefficiency to adapt to the daily needs of travelers and employees. The upgrades\nto the Honeywell NAVITAS software suite support airport operations and help\ndrive decreased operational expenses, all while promoting a higher level of\nsafety, security and uptime and an improved experience for travelers and\nemployees.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    South Korea\u2019s Incheon International Airport, one of the\nhighest-trafficked hub airports in Asia, commenced an end-to-end Honeywell\nNAVITAS Platform as an Integrated System which has helped the airport\nsignificantly enhance air traffic management efficiency. Incheon International\nAirport also implemented 24-hour \u2018follow the greens\u2019 which helped the airport\nto improve situational awareness with precision and consistency across\nairfield, increased the level of conflict detection and resolution, as well as\ngenerated meaningful reductions in energy consumption, CO2 and lamp replacement\ncost for the Aerodrome.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \u201cBy unifying air and ground traffic control, airport\noperations and maintenance with predictive performance analysis, Honeywell has\nprovided Incheon International Airport a true, end-to-end airport management\nplatform,\u201d said Chang-Jun Lee, director, Aeronautical Ground Light Team,\nIncheon International Airport. \u201cOver the past 20 years, we\u2019ve worked with\nHoneywell to improve our operations and experiences to be one of the world\u2019s\nmost critical travel hubs. We plan the schedule to expand Honeywell NAVITAS by\nvalidating it, which allows us to continue to provide our travelers with an\nunmatched experience while supporting our employees with improved\ntechnologies.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
