Delivering NextGen
June 5, 2015Maryland Airport Managers Association
Presented byCarmine Gallo, Eastern Regional AdministratorFederal Aviation Administration
NextGen is the largest infrastructure project in U.S. history.
• Move from a ground-based system to satellite-based and digital technologies
• The flying public is already enjoying NextGen benefits:
• Shorter flights• Better on-time performance
and• Fewer missed connections
2
NextGen has a number of ingredients:
3
Technology gives more (and better) information enabling air traffic controllers, dispatchers and pilots to do their jobs better
Improved procedures are more efficient and are easier on the environment
Enhanced policies mean greater flexibility for the users of the airspace

After PBN Diverging departure

Delivering NextGenEn Route Automation Modernization (ERAM)
ERAM provides the platform needed for NextGen operations in high-altitude airspace
Provides real-time aeronautical information, enabling more efficient data management
Increases flexibility in routing aircraft around congestion, weather and other airspace restrictions – automatic flight coordination increases efficiency and capacity
Seamless information sharing, coordinationbetween controllers and en route centers
Foundational Program
Delivering NextGenTerminal Automation Modernization and Replacement (TAMR)
STARS supports ADS-B. In use while replacing older automation platforms at 108 other facilities
LCD screens cut electricity use by 67%, take less time to maintain and are more reliable than the previous CRT screens
Single system in NAS cuts costs by eliminating the need to develop, test and deploy software on multiple platforms and maintain an aging automation platform
Foundational Program
6
Converts terminal air traffic control facilities to a single, common automation platform: the Standard Terminal Automation Replacement System (STARS).
Delivering NextGenSystem Wide Information Management (SWIM)
Digital Data-Sharing Backbone of NextGen
Inconsistent Data from Multiple Sources Common Shared Data
Enables air traffic management-related information sharing among diverse, qualified systems
Provides information governance
Distributes weather and flight planning information to National Airspace System (NAS) users
Transformational Program
7
Delivering NextGenNAS Voice System (NVS)
Replaces the current voice switches operated independently at individual facilities
Enables flexibility to shift controller workload between facilities as needed
Enable direct communication between air traffic controllers and pilots, including UAS pilots
Transformational Program
8
Delivering NextGenPerformance Based Navigation (PBN)
Removing level-offs on arrivals, segregating arrival routes to deconflict flows
Adding more departure points, expediting departures
Adding high-altitude PBN routes
Realigning airspace
Cut emissions, fuel use through operational improvements
Implementational Program

Delivering NextGenAutomatic Dependent Surveillance − Broadcast
Satellite-Based Surveillance
Radar Surveillance Satellite-Based Surveillance
Aircraft positions updated continuously instead of every
4.7 seconds or longer with radar
100 of 230 air traffic facilities use ADS-B to separate traffic
634 ground stations are smaller than radar installations making them cheaper to maintain and easier on the environment
