Two air traffic management development centres open in Singapore
THE Civil Aviation Authority of Singapore (CAAS) marked a significant milestone in its vision to establish a Centre of Excellence for air traffic management with the inauguration of the ATM Research Institute Asia Pacific.
The inauguration ceremony of the two centres was presided over by Finance and Transport Minister of State Josephine Teo.
Some 140 global aviation leaders attending the World Civil Aviation Chief Executives Forum in Singapore this week participated in the ceremony.
CAAS is developing Singapore as a Centre of Excellence for ATM to improve the efficiency and safety of air traffic management in Singapore and the Asia Pacific region. This will allow passengers to travel more quickly, more comfortably and in greater safety.
These bodies are key elements of CAAS's strategy. They will conduct distinct yet complementary advanced research and development activities.
The ATMRI, Singapore's first institute dedicated to ATM R&D jointly set up by CAAS and the Nanyang Technological University (NTU), will nurture talent in the ATM domain and translate academic-based research into ATM solutions.
Some of the ATMRI's work areas include, air route modelling and simulation, air-ground traffic management, unmanned aircraft systems management, aviation weather research, and human factors in ATM.
