Eurocontrol Again Selects COMSOFT for CAMOS For the second time Eurocontrol has selected COMSOFT as its industrial partner for its CAMOS (centralized ARTAS (ATC radar tracker and server) maintenance and operational support service). The first contract was awarded in 2001. ARTAS is a surveillance element for almost all European ANSPS (air navigation service providers). Based on the universal ASTERIX (all-purpose structured Eurocontrol radar information exchange) format, it makes use of a wide range of different types of sensor data, such as conventional radar information, elementary and enhanced mode-S as well as ADS-B (automatic dependent surveillance-broadcast) to provide an up-to-date, error-corrected situation to its users. The ARTAS application software is free of charge to European Civil Aviation Conference member states and has gained broad acceptance over the last decade. Over the last few years, COMSOFT says it has refined the technology of ARTAS by adding such things as a Linux system platform and increasing its functionality by including ADS-B and DAP (downlinked aircraft parameters). The Karlsruhe, Germany-based company says it's already working on integrating both ADS-C (contract) and multilateration data processing to increase its value even further. 09-04-2007. |
