Surface Movement Radar

Surface Movement Radar (SMR) is an essential component in the management of air traffic on the ground. It addresses the critical challenge of maintaining visibility over the movement of aircraft and ground vehicles, especially during adverse weather conditions or in periods of low visibility.

Navtech’s advanced sensors provide a robust solution to these challenges. Integrated with the sophisticated ERA ERIS Air Traffic Management (ERIS-ATM) system, they deliver full situational awareness across the airport surface. The high-resolution capability of the radar allows for the precise detection and monitoring of all movements within a 1km radius, ensuring that every taxiing aircraft, service vehicle, and potential obstacle is accounted for. This integration is particularly beneficial as it operates impeccably under any weather conditions and lighting scenarios, offering uninterrupted operational continuity.
