FOR SMALL AND MEDIUM SIZED AIRPORTS Velocity FIDS

Transcription

1

2 is a FIDS solution for small and medium sized airports. It is available as an installed and as a cloud solution and it is multi airport solution. The package contains many use full features like a flight generator, a stand allocation package, gate assignment, check-in handling, baggage handling features etc. All these features are configurable during installation through administration programs. The package has the possibility to handle automatic flight status messages from SITA or other suppliers. In this way, the airport may be operated automatically without operator interventions. The airport may at any time, be operated manually through the FlightTraffic program. If one combine with a standard economy system, it is possible to operate a whole airport without investing in a separate AODB system. If you already got an AODB, system the system easily integrates to that. The system is scalable and manage easily 1000 display units. Display units may dynamically and online be added, modified or removed, and it may be done by the technical administration people from the airport. Multi Airport: can handle many airports from the same central placed server. This gives the possibility to save operator and administration cost. It is only necessary with one node for receiving type-b messages for all airports handled by the central server. The different messages, received at the node, are automatically applied to the airports for which they are relevant. Remote airports only require a 2MB tcp/ip connection.

3 Flight Traffic: The Flight browser displays the flights in order by STD or STA. Arrival and Departure flights is distinguished by background colors. For visibility the cancelled or replaced flights are also distinguished by background colors. Changes to data are highlighted by timestamp colors. The timestamp colors are divided into three groups, 0-3, 3-6 and 6-15 minutes since last change. Resource allocation: The allocation of resources like Stand, Gate and Belt may be done automatically, in advance on a weekly base from a predefined schedule.

4 Check-in allocation: In the check-in application the information is planned independently from the individual flights, but they may be linked, in order for let flight information be shown at the check-in counters. The program works with planned and actual assignments. The planned assignments are automatically moved to the actual assignments allowing for manual editing afterwards, if there is a change on the current day. Display Engine: The engine is based on the Chrome browser. Therefore, the graphic possibilities are virtually endless. The flight information pages can easily be combined with advertisement pages. The pages may be created by the customer in HTML5. Push technology is obtained by using web-sockets for accomplishing real-time data flow. Which gives response times < 2 seconds. Baggage handling: This application is used by the baggage-handling people to enter the band number, mark first bag on belt and mark last bag on belt on a touch screen monitor. Weather support: The system contains support for showing the weather at the destination on the gate layouts. Icons and temperature figures show the weather at the destination. Weather forecast data can be automatically received from the weather forecast provider and are updated on the displays immediately upon received. Message handling: can be operated solely from a schedule and then updated by the operators manually whenever there is a change in ETD, gate number or gates status. Nevertheless, it can also receive type-b messages from a message queue. Supported Message types: Display Message: In the operator has the possibility to enter non flight related messages. He can chose among predefined messages or he can write a free text message. The message may be distributed according to a schedule or send out immediately.

5 POP3 Sita Interface: SITA type-b messages received by the system using . Delay Notification: provides the service for sending notifications related to delays containing reason codes. The notifications are send using as transport. Destination dependent adverts: Advertisements on gate layouts can be related to airlines and destinations. In this way, the airport has the possibility to sell advertisement space to the airlines. Aircraft base data: Basic data for the aircrafts are either entered manually or delivered by a Aircraft data provider. The data consists of the following information: - Aircraft Registration. - Aircraft type. - Airline operator. - Aircraft Height. - Aircraft Width. - Aircraft Length. - Noise Certification. - Number of First Class seats in the Aircraft. - Number of Business Class seats in the Aircraft. - Number of Economy Class seats in the Aircraft. - Total number of seats in the Aircraft. - Maximum Take Off Weight for the Aircraft. - NOX for the Aircraft. - Winglets on the Aircraft. Special Message handling: Whenever there is a need for sending out passenger information that is not flight related one has the possibility to send out a special message. The message can be written from the bottom or the operator may use one of the preconfigured messages. The message can be send out to one device or to a group of devices. User administration: The packaged contains support for administrating users, groups, user groups, assigning rights to users groups, and assigning user to groups. Digital Signage: A small editor is used to edit sequences of contents to be shown. Transitions from one image to the next can be done in different graphical ways. The FIDS rules defines when a monitor can be used for digital signage. In this way FIDS always has priority over digital signage. Alarm Handling: There is support for monitoring all connected devices on the operator s computer. All devices are configured in a tree view. The tree can be configured and reconfigured by the airport and it can hold any level of expansion. The operator has the possibility to have a real time view of the picture on the selected monitor. He can have any number of devices open at a time with a real time view. Staff information: Staff information can be send out through webpages. The information can be filtered according to the logged in user. The filter goes on which fields should be shown and which records should be used. This can be used to filter out airline information or flights of interest for the police etc. The filters may be created, changed and deleted by the airport.
