Denmark’s Billund Airport is upgrading its automatic terminal information service (ATIS) with the deployment of the Insero AviCast solution.
Due to growing traffic and the need for separate ATIS broadcasts for arrivals and departures, Billund Airport has upgraded to the latest Insero AviCast solution from Insero Air Traffic Solutions.
Insero AviCast provides separate automatic terminal information service (ATIS) voice broadcast of, among other things, meteorological and runway condition information for the pilots in connection with arrivals and departures. The system may later be upgraded to also support datalink transmissions of the ATIS (i.e. D-ATIS).
“The solution delivers specific information, only relevant to either arriving or departing traffic. We will see less frequency load, more capacity and increased Safety. What’s not to like?” said Mike Rosenstrøm, head of airport operations, Billund Airport.
AviCast can run in fully automatic mode and integrates with the existing Insero AWOS (automatic weather observation system), so no actions are required from Air Traffic Control (ATC) during daily operations. This includes support for the latest runway condition report format.
Insero AviCast is the latest generation of the Insero broadcasting solutions, building on many years of experience and operational use, yet based on a modern service-oriented server architecture and secure browser-based web applications.
