Park Air Systems - The World Leader in Complete Air Traffic Control Systems

Northrop Grumman Corporation’s (NYSE: NOC) Europe-based airport systems group has expanded its Airport Realtime Collaboration (ARC) portfolio to include new capabilities in passenger flow forecasting and queue time management.
 
The new ARC passenger flow module can give airport operators and security partners far better accuracy in their long and medium term planning and also early warning of unexpected changes in passenger flow rates, allowing them to optimise security search resourcing and so minimise queuing times. Existing installations have shown forecasts accurate to within 2 percent of actual flows and a vastly improved ability to meet queue time Service Level Agreements.
 
“The new passenger flow module of ARC offers airports a simple way to use existing data sources in a smarter way, giving more accurate forecasting and higher predictability. This can range from long term planning to realtime warning of an expected surge of people at security”, said Charles Houseago, managing director of Northrop Grumman’s airport systems group.
