TopSky

The TopSky (formerly EUROCAT)[1] system is a computerised air traffic control and management solution[buzzword] developed by Thales Air Systems (formerly Thomson CSF).[2] It utilises a distributed computing architecture and is capable of integrating geographically dispersed air traffic control units within a Flight Information Region (e.g. control towers at different airports and en route control centres) into a single coherent system.

During 2012, the Thales marketing name has been changed from Eurocat to TopSky.

Features edit

TopSky handles a large variety of different functions required for the smooth operation of air traffic control and management. A non-exhaustive list includes:[3]

  • Surveillance data processing and track correlation (radar, ADS-B, ADS-C etc.)
  • Flight plan processing
  • Communication (CPDLC etc.)
  • Aeronautical information data processing (NOTAMs, QNH, wind aloft etc.)
  • Flow control and sequencing
  • Human-machine interfacing (e.g. correlating data to generate controller's display)
  • Data recording
  • Controller situational awareness and alerts generation
    • Squawk Emergency (EMG), Radio Failure (RAD), Hijack (HIJ)
    • Short Term Conflict Alert (STCA), Minimum Safe Altitude Warning (MSAW), Danger Area Infringement Warning (DAIW) etc.
    • Non-Transgression Zone (NTZ) alert, DUPE Alerts, FPCF Alerts.
