Home >  Business Solutions >  ACC     Business Solutions for ACC     Our expertise consists in supplying a number of Modules which can be combined in order to achieve the appropriate level of flexibility in order to meet the requirements of the local ATC environment.     The overriding needs of the ANSP's in terms of optimized ACC solutions, system evolution, ATC project management and purchasing decisions can be summarized as: Adopting a project approach based on identified technical segments (FDP, HMI, Recording etc.) where each one can be individually implemented in a step-by-step manner instead of opting for a monolithic "mega-project" solution Favoring smooth, step-wise system evolution instead of "Big Bang" solutions Relying on standardized Modules as much as possible Selecting suppliers that are flexible and that can add functionalities to the existing ATM systems Relying on experienced system integrators, capable of integrating new ATM solutions with existing systems (even with heterogeneous systems) Our ACC system is built around the SkyVisual HMI. The system is a combination of various SkySoft-ATM's Modules that together provide a multitude of functions, such as conflict detection (customized MTCD), supervision, gateways, centralized maintenance, Automatic Map Display System (for active military zones) among others. SkyServer provides the key system functions such as customized MTCD, automatic conflict detection/resolution over coordination points, FDP access (modifiable on-line from any CWP), silent sector coordination, etc. One of the major benefits of our solution is its ability to connect to existing systems using a number of powerful protocol conversion gateways (part of the SkyTech Module). SkyServer can be combined with the SkySupervision Module to allow a constant auto-diagnosis of the global operational system and the control of all its technical parameters. This is possible thanks to it's integrated event-viewer. As an illustration,  a complete update of all ACC CWP's can be done in less than 10 minutes. The SkyRec Module can also be integrated into the ACC system. It provides complete video and radar data record-and-replay functions, useful for a number of reasons (legal, training, technical expertise, remote maintenance etc.). This ACC solution, based on our Modules, offers the ANSP's a very high safety-level, excellent ergonomics, capacity optimization and significant cost benefits. The key advantages are: Fast customization of any SkyModule to meet local requirements (COTS-based hardware solution, open architecture, Linux/ Windows platform) Time to market : months instead of years Easy, natural and early adoption of the solution by the ATCO's Limited ATCO training Staff optimization thanks to increased ATC automation and collaborative decision tools Improved ATC responsiveness Excellent connectivity to any ANSP heterogeneous systems (FDP, RDP...) thanks to in-depth integration expertise Our ACC system, based on a modular design and a proven incremental project methodology, has demonstrated its outstanding stability, reliability and user-friendliness. Our accelerated project development framework opens a new era in the ATM field, a win-win relationship between the suppliers and the ANSP's.
