Cloud-Based System Enhances Safety And Reliability In National Airspace

The FAA has completed the first phase of its new Notam system, a cloud-based platform designed to improve reliability and safety in the National Airspace System. The new system replaces a 40-year-old legacy system that was prone to outages and shutdowns. The FAA worked with CGI Federal and stakeholders to implement the system, which provides near-real-time data exchange and a modern interface. The agency plans to shut down the Federal Notam Service later this year as part of the next phase. This development was reported by Aviation International News.
