COMSOFT to Integrate WAM and ADS-C into Eurocontrol's ARTAS
COMSOFT will integrate WAM (wide area multilateration) and ADS-C automatic dependent
surveillance-contract) into Eurocontrol's new ARTAS (air traffic management
surveillance tracker and server system) to improve its tracking capability and
coverage.
Eurocontrol's next-generation ARTAS (version 8) will fuse WAM and ADS-C data
with information from other sensors such as radar and ADS-B (automatic dependent
surveillance-broadcast) to optimize its overall performance and provide
complementary surveillance for areas without radar coverage such as oceans.
ARTAS is now being used by close to 30
civil and military administrations at more than 50 sites, according to COMSOFT.
