Terminal Approach Control

By building on the Advanced Flight Data Management (FDM) functions supporting Air Traffic Control, Atom™ provides the following additional features to Terminal Approach Control personnel:

• Coordination and handoff to towers and ACC.

• Flight strip printing in Terminal format and colors for arrivals/departures/overflights.

• Positions shown on strips as named fixes, fix/radial/distances or latitude/longitudes with automatic boundary crossing point determination.

• Current METAR/SPECI displays for regional airports.

• Flow planning and sector loading prediction.

• Distance-based conflict prediction.

• Easy entry of pop-up flight plans using aircraft and routing templates.

Interfaces to other systems:

ATC/ATM interfaces to Tower and Area Control Center.

Airspace Revenue to capture flight information for revenue and statistics.

The Atom™ Advantage:

Atom™ provides the Terminal Control with the same information that is automatically shared with the Tower and Area Control Center but tailored for the formats and uses of Terminal Control.
