DeWITT — Saab Sensis Corp. said today its technology will be used to improve the safety of flights near the Lotte World Tower in Seoul, South Korea.
Sensis, a subsidiary of Swedish defense and security company Saab, will deploy a Wide Area Multilateration (WAM) system for surveillance of flights near the tower, which is being built near Seoul Air Base. The system will monitor flights within 10 to 15 nautical miles of the tower.
Also today, Sensis announced that John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK) will use Sensis’ Aerobahn airport surface management system and departure management services. The company will add to and improve on Aerobahn technology already in place at JFK.
The Port Authority of New York & New Jersey also plans to extend use of Aerobahn to LaGuardia and Newark Liberty International Airports. The system helps reduce taxi times, cut fuel use, and provides for more efficient use of runways, according to Sensis.
Aerobahn combines flight schedules, planned arrival and departure gates, and passenger and bag connection information with aircraft and vehicle surveillance and identification for a real-time, comprehensive view of surface operations, according to Sensis.
The company, based in DeWitt, employs about 600 people at eight locations and serves more than 60 customers in 35 countries. It has about 500 employees in Central New York.
