ENAIRE is the main air navigation manager in Spain, the fourth in Europe by traffic volume and one of the most important worldwide. It controls more than 2 million square kilometers of airspace, and serves two million flights each year with more than 250 million people.
As it is such a large operator, it needs constant modernization of its equipment to meet the minimum expected standards of safety and competence in the sector. Therefore, ENAIRE’s objective was clear: to completely renew the infrastructure of its services, adopting the advanced VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) technology.
Expansion of the Monitoring System
To achieve the initial objectives, the ORION system was modified and expanded, integrating the management of the gateways (AVEVA System Platform, KepServer), the supervision (AVEVA Supervisory Client), and the processing of historical records (AVEVA Historian) in the same application.
Results that are at Least Successful
This project represented an undeniable improvement in communication between control centers and aircraft and placed ENAIRE at the forefront of aeronautical technology in the digital age. Since then, the air manager has had a more advanced, secure, and efficient communications platform that leaves the door open to future functionalities that were previously unimaginable.
