Computer-assisted Approach and Landing Management for Zurich Airport, Switzerland
Case study
Zurich airport Kloten is a heavily frequented hub with three runways in operation. When increasing air traffic brought the airport’s runway capacity to its limits, Skyguide decided in April 1998 to upgrade its landing management with a Computer-assisted Approach and Landing Management (CALM) system developed by Barco.
Since March 2001, CALM supports air traffic controllers at the approach control center and area control center in the planning and management of all inbound traffic to Zurich airport. CALM helps to smoothen the traffic flow at Kloten, to reduce the work load of ATC controllers, and to get the most out of the airport’s capacity resources. CALM is based on Barco’s commercial-off-the-shelf arrival manager OSYRIS.
