AireonFLOW™ provides ANSPs with a high-fidelity, low-latency source of position data far beyond their own Flight Information Region (FIR) or Area of Responsibility (AoR) without the need to sign data-sharing agreements with neighboring countries.
A robust, high-fidelity and complete dataset is a vital component in supporting the safe, efficient, and effective flow of air traffic through various airspaces and aerodromes.
Support tools and enhanced situational awareness requirements necessary to meet these needs are increasing the demand for data, in particular, reliable, real-time position of aircraft beyond the Flight Information Region (FIR) and the time at which these aircraft will enter the FIR or arrive at an airport.
AireonFLOW provides gate-to-gate, high-fidelity ATS surveillance data, which combined with flight and airspace contextual information enhances prediction capabilities of flow management and other relevant air traffic capacity and demand platforms.
The ANSP will define an airspace boundary, typically extends between 1000NM and 3000NM beyond their AoR. From within the defined airspace, AireonFLOW will provide regular position updates on traffic of interest within this airspace through integration with flight plans. This includes additional features such as identifying flight plan deviations or aircraft holding that may delay the time of arrival.
Traffic of interest includes traffic inbound to a selection of airports, inbound to all airports within the AoR and every traffic that will overfly the AoR, or any combination of those options.
AireonFLOW was developed to be easily integrated with an ATFM system, SWIM Node or A-CDM platform.
Once per minute position update rates allow for a precise time of arrival into an airspace, waypoint, or an airport. Aireon’s space-based ADS-B provides data for any aircraft equipped with 1090 MHz / ADS-B equipment up to a ceiling of 127,600 feet above ground level. Position reports are available for all subscribed aircraft, at a once per minute position update with a latency of less than 30 seconds.
Aireon provides continuous, global coverage, and availability over 99 percent of the time.
AireonFLOW is easy to deploy and has a seamless integration with existing flow management systems. Little to no hardware is required, and deployment is swift. The ANSP will need to have a Data Delivery Point (DDP) from which they can route data to the systems of their choice.
Aireon will deliver data using a secure, reliable, and scalable event distribution and management platform. This enables real-time data delivery supporting multiple messaging exchange patterns such as publish-subscribe (pub/sub) and streaming over protocols like AMQP 1.0 and others. The data is transmitted using an encrypted tunnel over public internet (IPSec VPN).
