Continuing with its constant endeavour to ensure the highest level of safety, operational efficiency and airport capacity, AAI has decided to increase the existing Air Traffic Control facilities of Indian Navy at Dabolim Airport, Goa which includes the provision of real-time data of air traffic operating in the airspace adjoining Goa airspace.

 

According to an AAI statement, The real-time processed data of multiple ATC RADAR feeds from Mumbai ATC Automation system will be transported to Navy ATC through the dedicated high-speed data link and it will be displayed to Navy ATC Officers at Goa.

 

This air traffic situational data display in Navy ATC Tower will provide complete details of inbound, outbound flights operating to Goa as well as en-route flights under control of Indian Navy ATC.
