Global Air Traffic Management
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Global Air Traffic Management (GATM) is a concept for satellite-based communication, navigation, surveillance and air traffic management. The Federal Aviation Administration and the International Civil Aviation Organization, a special agency of the United Nations, established GATM standards in order to keep air travel safe and effective in increasingly crowded worldwide air space.
Efforts are made all over the world to implement the new technologies that will allow GATM to efficiently support Air Traffic Controller.
Airservices Australia ADS-B initiative is one of the major implementation program in this field. This initiative will facilitate the certification of this new technology allowing further implementation.
