AIR TRAFFIC CONTROL
Every day across the globe, 60 percent of the world's commercial air traffic is monitored and controlled by Lockheed Martin air traffic control systems. Systems that are powerful, advanced and completely reliable. Lockheed Martin knows how to work with governments worldwide in a way that's fiscally sound, and we are accountable for generating strong results.
AIRPORT MANAGEMENT
Lockheed Martin provides tools for ground surveillance monitoring, coordination between airport service personnel and the air navigation, and management of aircraft in the taxiways and runways. Our hub and ramp management system integrates surveillance data, collaborative decision making tools and airline legacy systems into a single automated system. The system helps airline operations managers and air traffic controllers improve the efficiency of their operations. Our security systems protect the entire aviation infrastructure.
Lockheed Martin offers:
- Systems and services for airline operation centers
- Command and control communications centers
- Airport security systems
- Material and baggage handling solutions
- Centralized management information systems, and
- Flight and weather information decision support systems
AVIATION MANAGEMENT
Our automated systems can predict potential aircraft conflicts in advance. The advanced tools enable controllers to resolve conflicts and manage air traffic more efficiently. These same systems offer pilots increased flexibility in air routes, saving fuel while maintaining high levels of safety. Our gate-to-gate capabilities span:
- Air traffic control automation
- En-route, oceanic and terminal air traffic management
- Airport management and security systems, and
- Decision support tools for managing air flight operations
We offer unrivaled global depth and breadth in developing, upgrading and maintaining aviation management systems. Systems that make safe, on-time air travel possible.
NAVIGATION
With 40 years of air traffic management experience, Lockheed Martin has unparalleled expertise in developing sophisticated systems to maximize the full scope of airspace management. Lockheed Martin uses this knowledge to deliver flight navigation capability.
Working with strategic partners, we offer satellite-based navigation for aviation as part of our unified communications, navigation and surveillance solutions. Our navigation and landing system provides precision guidance to aircraft at thousands of airports and airstrips where there is currently no precision landing capability. Our systems allow aircraft to operate in closer proximity and use more dynamic routes, allowing decreased fuel consumption and increased airspace utilization.
VESSEL TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT
Lockheed Martin leads the way in providing products and vessel traffic management systems to nations, navies and maritime authorities to help them monitor and protect their assets, waterways, ports and harbors, shores, coasts and deep waters.
