ACSS SafeRoute+. Using ADS-B In Information to Streamline ATC Operations
Flight crews will also be able to make better real-time decisions, which will aid ATC in optimizing traffic flow in all visual conditions

Airlines that retrofit their fleet with ACSS’ SafeRoute+ will not only take advantage of the flight efficiencies of ADS-B In technology, their flight crews can also make better real-time decisions, which will aid ATC in optimizing traffic flow in all visual conditions.

In its most basic form, Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B) Out continually transmits an aircraft’s location, intention, speed, direction, and altitude in real-time to ATC, so controllers can more safely and efficiently route traffic into and out of today’s increasingly congested airspace.

While the safety enhancements enabled by ADS-B Out are proving to be an unparalleled success, it quickly became apparent that the same, highly detailed aircraft position/intention information that ATC sees would be equally beneficial if it were available inside the cockpit of those aircraft.
