AeroBOSS Product Features

AEROBOSS Provides Real-Time INFORMATION TO AID SURFACE SAFETY

AeroBOSS is an integrated surface management system (CDM/SMS) offering improved safety, resource coordination and performance for airports, airlines and stakeholders by providing real-time situational awareness, monitoring and alerting.

AeroBOSS provides users access to critical data over a web portal that utilizes the airport’s own GIS maps and aerial imagery for the most accurate and true representation of activity at the airport. Its open architecture allows it to consume and share data from and to third-party data sources and applications. Existing feeds from the FAA NextGen and SWIM programs provide real-time flight tracking capabilities, and ground vehicle locations from Leonardo’s vehicle transponders and Runway Incursion Warning System (RIWS). The system shares data with the Airport Operations Database (AODB) and Safety Management Systems (SMS) and event reporting and management platforms.

  • A Noise Complaint Management module integrates an airport’s flight tracking system with a public portal for noise complaint collection or an airport’s current complaint entry system.

NAVBOSS BRINGS EFFICIENCIES TO NAVAID SECURITY AND MAINTENANCE WITH REMOTE CAPABILITIES

NavBOSS is a Leonardo’s comprehensive suite of Remote Monitoring and Control solutions developed to save Air Service Navigation Providers (ANSPs) time and resources.

NavBOSS allows ANSPs to remotely monitor all NAVAIDS in a region or country from a central command center, or multiple command locations. With NavBOSS, maintenance can be performed remotely using the Remote Status Monitoring System and Portable Maintenance Date Terminal software, including remote flight check support, if properly augmented.

As an added feature, NavBOSS has the capability to integrate with Smart Glasses. These glasses allow a Leonardo technician to literally see, via live video streaming, issues presented by a technician at an equipment site and the two can discuss and troubleshoot the problem together.

Because NavBOSS is scalable and customizable, every ANSP, regardless of size, can realize significant efficiencies by using NavBOSS. Resources can be minimized by reducing staff travel to sites, performing maintenance operations faster to reduce equipment down time, and eliminating expenses associated with on-site maintenance visits.

The Elements of NAVBOSS

RSMScomputer-display

With our Remote Status Monitoring System (RSMS) software, the user has the ability to manage an entire network of systems. It provides at-a-glance views of network health and status for connected NAVAIDS, RCSUs, and other airport equipment on customizable map layouts.

RCSU

The Selex ES Model 2238 Remote Control Status Unit (RCSU) the user has the ability to monitor and control all ground navigation equipment, such as ILS, VOR, DME, TACAN, as well as other airport systems. 

RSDU

The Remote Status Display Unit (RSDU) is the preferred interface for ATC situations requiring monitoring of multiple runways and approaches. RSDUs are typically installed at ATC locations, as well as at other points around the airfield requiring at-a-glance status of the associated navigation equipment.
