IDS5 Systems at USAF Bases

 

Press Release

 
 
March 21, 2003

Systems Atlanta has supplied its IDS5 software suite for McGuire, Wright-Patterson, and Travis USAF bases. Operational systems at McGuire and Wright-Patterson are proving their adaptability, variously serving Tower and RAPCON controller positions, Weather Offices, Airfield Operations, and Pilot Briefing areas. Wright-Patterson reports that collocation of weather, time, NOTAMs, and airfield information on one screen immediately improves controllers’ situational awareness. Local Area Network (LAN) accreditation has provided the capability to incorporate several web-based services such as NOTAMs and the Air Force’s Automated Meteorological Information Service (AMIS). McGuire values the ability to display any of 39 approach charts from 13 airports with a single button click. Automating everything that formerly required paper has allowed them to reduce upgrade training times. The IDS5 system being implemented at Travis AFB will equip the new Radar Approach Control (RAPCON) facility. At these sites, IDS5 shares a common workstation and display with StarCaster-ATIS, which is accessed from within IDS5. This product integration has resulted in cost savings while streamlining ATC operations and reducing controller workload. Wright-Patterson’s IDS5 will interface to the FAA’s IDS4 system at Dayton Approach for data exchange over a secure Internet connection.
