Wednesday, June 12, 2024 Azeraeronavigation (AZANS), the air navigation service provider of Azerbaijan, has reinforced its dedication to safe and efficient airspace operations by adopting two Aireon data products: the Aireon Locate search and rescue tool and the Aireon Safety Dashboard. Since selecting Aireon in 2022 for its leading automatic dependent surveillance-broadcast (ADS-B) data for air traffic surveillance, AZANS has been using Aireon data to enhance ground surveillance networks throughout the entire Baku Flight Information Region (FIR) in Azerbaijan. Azerbaijan’s airspace covers 165,400 sq.
km, with 86,600 sq. km over land and 78,800 sq. km above the Caspian Sea.
The route network within this airspace spans approximately 11,000 km. The new contracts between Aireon and AZANS were signed at the CANSO Global ATM Summit in Baku, Azerbaijan, this week. “At Aireon, we are designing and deploying data products to meet our customers’ critical safety and operational needs.
These two products are perfect examples of that work,” said Chris Devlin, Aireon director of product development. “Safety Dashboard puts our gold-standard ADS-B data into a safety benchmarking context, allowing users to identify trends and markers. Locate, on the other hand, gives search and rescue organizations real-time information in the most time critical of situations.
” “We are excited to partner with AIREON to enhance our capabilities in air traffic management and safety,” said Mr. F.
