Presentation Transcript

  1. Requirement for PSR Primary Surveillance Radar • PSR is normally associated with a Terminal Service • PSR is currently located at 22 sites across Canada • Commencing Aeronautical Study to review requirement for PSR at 5 locations: • Prince George • Regina • Sault Ste Marie • North Bay • Gander • Study will consider application of new technology

  2. Hudson Bay Operational in 2009 Over 600 aircraft now certified Oceanic Six sites on Northeast Coast (End Oct 2010) Four sites in Greenland (Early 2011) Hibernia/Sable Island/Yukon Under assessment ADS-B Surveillance

  3. North Warning SystemADS-B Integration • Eastern portion of Canadian North • Labrador coast and southern Baffin Island • Brevort, Saglek, Cartwright • Implemented at end of October 2010 • Immediate benefits in Gander Domestic and Oceanic airspace • Provides surveillance redundancy

  4. ADS-B and RADAR 4

  5. Multilateration (MLAT) • Fort St John – now commissioned • Vancouver Harbour planned for 1st QTR 2011 • ATC application • Montreal (PETIA) • Airport surface surveillance installed • Other potential sites: • Kelowna/Penticton, Timmins, Sioux Lookout, Fredericton, Calgary Springbank, Vancouver Lower Mainland, Wabush, Abitibi West, Mont Tremblant

  6. Video Surveillance Project • Purchased controlling interest in Searidge Technologies • Extensive testing of Searidge video technology underway • Runway 4/22 – YOW • Use of video to enhance airport surveillance, subject to stringent ANS requirements

  7. Video Surveillance Project

  8. Automated flight data processing • CAATS now connects seven Area Control Centres: • Substantial efficiencies: flight data transferred electronically as planes cross the country. • Edmonton FIR Northern Airspace sectors the last to make the transition to CAATS – November Canadian Automated Air Traffic System (CAATS)

  9. Canadian Automated Air Traffic System (CAATS) • New CAATS features under development for near term (one-three years): • Controller Pilot Data Link • Automated Data Communication with external agencies (e.g. FAA, Iceland, etc.) • Display of Airspace to Protect (ATP) • Medium-Term Conflict Detection (MTCD)

  10. Integrated Tower Automation Suite (INTAS) • Integrated controller working position with up to four touch-screen monitors • Includes NAV CANADA technology: • Electronic Flight Data Strips • Operational Information Display System • monitors and controls airfield ground lighting, • monitors navigational aids, and weather data; • Digital-Automatic Terminal Information Service (D-ATIS) • Terminal surveillance displays

  11. CFPS • Collaborative Flight Planning System (CFPS) • Improvement to existing capability (2004) • Better customer service • Two way flow of flight plan information – file, change, delay, cancel) • Simplified registration process • Increased FIC efficiency • Integration with FIMS and CAATS • Centralization of data and services • Phased Implementation • VFR Flight Plans (Feb 2011) • IFR Flight Plans (TBA)

  12. International Recognition IATA - Best Air Navigation Service Provider 2010 • Recognizes customer satisfaction, cost efficiency, continuous improvement • Requires positive record in safety, social operational and environmental issues • Recognizes effective customer consultation; transparency in sharing information; reasonable service charges; productivity improvements. JANE’S 2010 Environment Award • ATC Global Award for Hudson Bay ADS-B deployment • ”Green” Air Traffic Management concepts for reducing the impact of aviatin on the environment • Estimated $195M in fuel and 547K metric tons of GHG emissions from 2009-16. • Shared by NAV CANADA and SENSIS

  13. Summary • Continued compression on cost control • Expansion of Surveillance coverage and development of new technology • Improvements to the Navigation System • Upgrades to aviation weather and flight planning • AWOS, Weather Cameras, Centralized Flight Planning Service • Progressive deployment of new capabilities to improve Air Traffic Management • GAATS+, CAATS, INTAS, EXCDS, SASS,
