Terma Air News - March 2009

Copenhagen, Denmark March 2009 – Recently Terma delivered an Automated Terminal Information Service (ATIS Plus) System to the Malé International Airport in the Maldives, one of the fastest growing airports in the region.

The ATIS Plus System relieves air traffic controllers of the burden of continuously providing meteorological data and the cockpit crews can enjoy a distinct, high quality broadcast of ATIS information whenever needed.

The ATIS broadcast can be generated as follows:

•    Text, which is send to briefing and the ATC systems.
•    Voice, which is send to radio transmitter, so the pilot can listen to ATIS broadcast.
•    DataLink, which is send via DataLink Service Provider to the pilots ACARS computer.

ATIS Plus is primarily deployed at regional and domestic civil and military airports/airfields. It provides combined ATIS broadcast in either single or main/hot standby configuration. The system complies with ICAO and WMO standards.

ATIS PLUS is a fully automated ATIS system ideal for regional airports. Its standardized features include all that are needed for an ATIS service, a result of our extensive experience in delivering ATIS systems accumulated over more than 15 years. Automatic broadcast is complemented by manual recording and input whenever it is needed.
