At Kongsberg Aeronaoutical, we solve some of the difficult challenges airlines face.
System Solution Features
Kongsberg Aeronautical’s system solution encompasses seamless connectivity that automatically transmits data from the onboard program function and delivers information to airlines user through user applications. Information transfer to airline users is set up trough collaboration agreements with channel partners providing applications with streamlined workflow systems for aviation weather information and other flight operational information to airlines.
Kongsberg Aeronautical’s solution is designed to merge information from several airlines’ network of aircraft to provide landing frequency. Landings are anonymized with the exception of aircraft type.
Key Functions
-
Objective information derived from use of on-board flight data.
-
All computations done on-board, and results have no bearing upon pilot actions.
-
Result data is transmitted upon end of stopping run and relayed in real-time.
-
Cloud based data server collects and processes data, and distributes information in real-time.
-
Standard file format for user application integration
-
All data transfers through secure connections and links.
Kongsberg Aeronautical’s onboard program function reads flight data during the stopping run, calculates, and provides an objective assess-ment of an aircraft’s stopping capability.
Kongsberg Aeronautical’s cloud-based data server performs a data quality control before data converts into Braking Action usable information for distribution.
Development of user interface is a collaboration function between Kongsberg Aeronautical and provider of aviation weather system tool to assure intuitive workflow for airline users.
Applied in a flight following program for flight operations and flight dispatch, Kongsberg Aeronautical has designed an end-to-end system with data flowing from aircraft upon landing, through its cloud-based data server, and distributed through a channel partner to reach the users at airlines. The system solution provides information for pilots and flight operational personnel to calculate landing– and stopping distances that are:
● Precise
● Frequent
● Swift
This delivers airlines the following benefits:
Improved
Situational Awareness
Situational awareness is vital to the safety of flight operations. Kongsberg Aeronautical’s system solution for relay of real-time information about runway surface conditions provides airlines enhanced weather/runway situational awareness that gives them early insight to deteriorating runway conditions
Risk Mitigation
Through improved situational awareness pilots and flight operational personnel are given the capacity to proactively manage to mitigate or avoid disruptive events with intelligent alerting.
