Leuven, Belgium, September 24th 2009 --[ASDWire]-- Luciad, the specialist in high performance visualization of situational awareness in Aviation, will be showcasing its latest advances for high performance Air Traffic Control and Management systems at ATCA's Annual Conference & Exhibition on October 4-7 in Washington DC, USA. ATCA is the premier forum of ATC industry leaders and policy makers in North America.


On booth 328 at the ATCA event, visitors will experience live showcases of LuciadMap V9, the latest release of the Luciad software suite designed to build mission-critical aeronautical information systems with advanced graphical display capabilities in Air Traffic Control, Air Traffic Management and Aeronautical Information Management.

Visitors will have a chance to discover exciting new technologies that enable fast, accurate handling and visualization of next generation aeronautical data. Fully aligned with the American NextGen (next Generation Air Transportation System) and SESAR (Single European Sky ATM Research) program specifications, LuciadMap offers the first available high-performance out-of-the box decoding and visualization of the new AIXM 5 standard, the aeronautical information format of choice for future ATC/ATM/AIM systems.

Support for temporality, digital NOTAMs, and Terminal Aerodrome Forecasts (TAF), and the integration of an OGC-compliant Web Feature Server will be on display. These dynamic technologies do not only greatly improve the safety of incoming and departing flights, they will also result in significant time and cost efficiencies for airports and airlines.
