Register to view this On-Demand Webinar (recorded 19th September 2024) to see the latest advances in real-time runway safety solutions, with a first look at the new Surface Alert System (SURF-A), due to be released in 2025 from industry leaders Honeywell. As you will see SURF-A is a runway safety software solution specifically designed for cockpits and which seamlessly integrates with cockpit displays. Using video demos of the solution, the Honeywell team will show you how the software establishes the current location and movement of all ADS-B equipped traffic within the runway engagement zone, during taxi, takeoff, final approach, landing, and rollout. You will also see how it uses advanced algorithms to identify anything that could cause an incursion within the next 30 seconds.  The pilots are then alerted in real-time with both audio and visual alerts (on the EGPWS display: Traffic on Final, Traffic Behind, Traffic on Runway, Traffic Intersecting Runway), allowing them crucial time to avoid any accidents.  As you will see SURF-A has been compared to adding an ‘extra set of eyes’ in the cockpit, which is particularly important as air traffic expands, airports become more congested, and the number of runway safety incidents increases; industry estimates show that every day an incursion happens somewhere in the world.

The Webinar begins with a look at the challenges facing airlines and pilots with runway incursions. Pilots are the last line of defense to prevent collisions and avoid close calls on busy runways, yet current solutions alert the control tower to potential problems but don’t alert pilots directly, which can delay response time.  As you will see SURF-A enhances situational awareness and gives flight crew the right information, at the right time and in the right place to enhance runway safety.  Next the Honeywell presenters showcase the technology behind SURF-A including GPS data, ADS-B, and advanced analytics to pinpoint the exact location of traffic hazards on or near the runway.  You’ll also learn how SURF-A fits into Honeywell’s other popular expanding portfolio of runway safety products, such as SmartRunway for wrong surface alerts and enhanced situation awareness, and SmartLanding to prevent hard or long landings. Finally, using real-world examples of runway incursions at airports such as JFK, along with video demos from the cockpit, you will see how SURF-A takes runway safety to new heights.

The Webinar is divided into 4 key sections:

• The Growing Challenges facing Airlines / Pilots with Runway Incursions
  Flying is recognized as one of the safest travel methods but, despite enhanced safety, there has been a significant increase in runway safety incidents and accidents since 2022. Pilots are the last line of defense to In avoiding near misses and prevent collisions on busy runways, pilots are the last line of defense yet, while current solutions alert the control tower to potential problems, they don’t alert pilots directly, and that can delay response time.  You will see how SURF-A enhances situational awareness by giving flight crew the right information, at the right time and in the right place to enhance runway safety.
  
  
• Honeywell SURF-A Technology and Latest Testing Results
  Next you will learn how the solution works, utilizing GPS data, ADS-B to pinpoint the exact location of traffic hazards on or near the runway during taxi, takeoff, final approach, landing, and rollout, and how it uses advanced algorithms to identify anything that could cause an incursion within the next 30 seconds.  The pilots are will then be alerted in real-time with both audio and visual alerts (on EGPWS display: Traffic on Final, Traffic Behind, Traffic on Runway, Traffic Intersecting Runway), allowing critical time for them to avoid any threats.  The Honeywell team will also provide updates regarding the latest solution testing, and when SURF-A will be available on the market.
  
  
• Honeywell SURF-A Video Demos and Real-World Runway Incursions
  Next, using videos of demos from the cockpit, you will see SURF-A in action, showing both audio and visual alerts on the EGPWS display: Traffic on Final, Traffic Behind, Traffic on Runway, Traffic Intersecting Runway.  You will see how the alerts only occur if the solution’s advanced algorithms identify anything that could cause an incursion within the next 30 seconds in order that the pilots can take appropriate action to avoid an accident. If everything is going well, the pilots won’t see or hear the system. The Honeywell team will also look at recent runway incursions at airports such as AUS (Austin), and JFK, and how SURF-A would have intervened in these scenarios.
  
  
• Honeywell’s Portfolio of Runway Safety Products: SmartRunway & SmartLanding
  Finally you will see an overview of Honeywell’s popular and growing portfolio of runway safety products and how SURF-A fits into that portfolio. These solutions include SmartRunway and SmartLanding, which are currently installed on about 5,000 commercial aircraft – around 20% of the world’s fleet.  The presenters will show you how these solutions integrate seamlessly with the EGPWS cockpit displays to assist Pilots in avoiding runway incursions, over-runs and wrong-surface landings, and take-offs. You will also see how SmartRunway and SmartLanding use aircraft position data and an accurate runway database to determine whether an aircraft is in the correct energy state and position for landing. On takeoff, it also checks that the runway surface is long enough for the type of aircraft. As you will see SURF-A takes those capabilities up a notch by accessing data directly from the ADS-B equipment installed on aircraft and ground vehicles.

It is available in stand-alone Apps for pilots, dispatch, and management, or as an integrated layer in any EFB platform, providing real-time en-route, graphically visualized turbulence reports, as well as PIREPs, and vocal and text alerts warning of Turbulence ahead.  During the Webinar, SkyPath experts will take you on demos of the solution, firstly from a pilot’s perspective for a typical flight using the flight deck App; followed by the Web App as used by dispatch to monitor each flight, and by management for incident analysis, and to draw up analytics and reports.  The demos will also showcase the newest features in SkyPath (5.0). Firstly Nowcasting, a predictive AI / ML powered model utilizing real-time turbulence observations and meteorological parameters to predict short-term turbulence, for up to 6 hours, with a detection rate of more than 90%.  Next how pilots can report official PIREPs through the App which are transmitted directly to NOAA’s systems.  With rising Turbulence from global warming, as you will see, SkyPath offers vital insights to both Pilots and Dispatchers, providing real-time Turbulence data and Turbulence predictions, enabling immediate action.

The Webinar begins with a look at the challenges of rising turbulence before giving an overview of the solution.  You will see how, by collecting turbulence data from every aircraft equipped with the app on the pilot’s iPad (using a patented algorithm utilizing the iPad’s accelerometer), SkyPath autonomously maps the sky. The information is then shared with the whole SkyPath community using crowdsourcing technology. The solution additionally normalizes the turbulence data taking the airplane’s type into consideration (weight, wing length, etc.). As you will see, via case studies, SkyPath predicts 75% of turbulence-related injury events, and drives a 40-50% decrease in the number of injuries per month among SkyPath users.

The Webinar is divided into three key sections:

1. Overview of SkyPath; Industry Turbulence Problems; Latest Developments
   First, the SkyPath team will outline the challenge of rising turbulence, which is forecast to further increase in the next few years and become more severe.  You will learn about the technology SkyPath is based on (using a patented algorithm utilizing the iPad’s accelerometer), before a look at the ecosystem of solutions, as stand-alone Apps for pilots, dispatch, and management, or as an integrated layer in any EFB platform. You will then see the latest developments and new features in Version 5.0, including Nowcasting, a predictive AI / ML powered model utilizing real-time turbulence observations and meteorological parameters to predict short-term turbulence. You will also see how pilots can report official PIREPs through the App.  Lastly the SkyPath team will provide a sneak peak of new capabilities they are working on.
   
   
2. SkyPath Demo 1: Pilot App for Typical Flight
   Next, you will see a SkyPath demo from a pilot’s perspective following a typical flight.  You will see how Pilot’s use the App to upload a flight plan, get an overview of the flight ahead – through a ’ride quality’ feature and a vertical view of the entire flight path.  You will see how a pilot receives both vocal and text notification of turbulence ahead (even when the app is in the background), and you will see the different weather layers available through SkyPath and how to see the relevant weather information at different altitudes. Finally, the SkyPath team will demonstrate how to submit an official PIREP through the App.
   
   
3. SkyPath Demo 2: Web App for Dispatch and Management
   Finally you will see a demo of the SkyPath Web App which provides tools for dispatch and management teams displaying the same powerful turbulence data. The demo will show how a dispatcher, using the SkyPath Web App, manages their own desk showing the flights they are responsible for.  You will see the value of the information SkyPath provides in route planning and flight monitoring and how a dispatcher receives notifications for upcoming turbulence in their flights’ routes.  For management you will see how easy it is to perform an incident analysis, going back up to 90 days to analyse data. Finally, you will see the important analytics options available for management analysing key data, such as pilot alerts and how many were acted upon by pilots, as well as the most turbulent routes – including heat maps and more.
