New York Terminal Radar Approach Control (TRACON) Gains New GPS
Technology To Help Direct Air Traffic
Software that enables the use of GPS technology has been
delivered to the New York Terminal Radar Approach Control (TRACON),
which is responsible for air traffic in the nation's second busiest
airspace. The ADS-B enabling software enhancements, developed by
Lockheed Martin, were delivered via the FAA's Common Automated
Radar Terminal System (ARTS) program, which helps air traffic
controllers safely separate departing and arriving aircraft.
