NAV CANADA and Indra to deploy leading Air Traffic Management Platforms

NAV CANADA and Indra announced today that they have reached a milestone agreement that will contribute to the evolution of Canada’s air traffic management systems.

The first phase of the agreement will support the deployment of a state-of-the-art flight data processing system (FDPS) and an air traffic flow management system (iACM) for complex airspaces within NAV CANADA’s network centre.

In line with NAV CANADA’s strategic direction, this partnership represents a tangible step towards Trajectory-Based Operations (TBO) in Canada, shifting air traffic management towards a strategic approach that takes a more comprehensive picture of a flight from take-off to landing. This new technology can calculate routes with great accuracy and predict the evolution of air traffic over an extended horizon, supporting greater planning and coordination.
