Visualization for Safer Skies
Managing air traffic in real time takes powerful, fault-tolerant monitoring tools. ILOG provides highly ergonomic and intuitive visualization tools that help controllers at airports and countryside monitoring stations clearly and accurately capture the movements of planes above cities and across continents. Information on altitude and heading, along with type, ownership, and origin and destination, must be shown together for each aircraft in a georeferenced graphical environment. Displaying this essential information enables air traffic authorities to determine ways to maximize traffic while reducing congestion and improving security.
Real-time monitoring
Today, air traffic controllers depend on highly reliable and intuitive graphical user interfaces (GUIs) built with ILOG visualization technology. These GUIs enable real-time monitoring of traffic and on-screen interaction with data sources. They consolidate information, taking data from diverse sources -- radar, database and identification systems, for example -- and display it in a well-organized, highly ergonomic graphical environment. Air controllers can identify and plot the course of aircraft from the moment they enter monitored airspace.
Fully interactive displays
Major airports and air authorities around the world have adopted ILOG visualization to track aircraft in real time. ILOG has become a leader in this industry by supplying everything necessary for quickly building fully interactive GUIs.
- Industry-specific graphic objects
ILOG visualization provides a way to quickly and easily implement industry-specific graphic objects and behaviors. Users need only import and connect a graphic object in order to use it. This simplifies and expedites development by eliminating the need for research and design work to create a graphic for a project.
- High-performance display engines
ILOG visualization engines are among the fastest on the market, ensuring real-time display whenever possible.
- Unparalleled development tools
Developers get a complete set of graphical editing and deployment tools. Users can fully modify graphic objects, add them to displays and connect then to data sources.
- Maps and mapping tools
To fully comprehend the location of an aircraft, a controller must see the plane displayed in a map. ILOG provides an entire visualization system devoted to enhancing GUIs with cartographic information. The system includes maps of regions throughout the world.
- Connectivity
ILOG Server ensures that every computer running a display system gets the same picture. ILOG Server keeps vastly removed computers in sync by automatically updating data across networks.
- Full compliance with other systems
ILOG software is designed to work with all the leading systems. It easily integrates with systems from across the entire industry.
- Web support
All ILOG software fully supports Web-based applications. Key air-traffic control systems have been made Web-accessible with Java visualization from ILOG.
