Revolutionizing Airspace Management with Artificial Intelligence
The US Federal Aviation Administration is investing $875 million in a cloud-based AI platform to enhance air traffic control. The SMART system, developed by Air Space Intelligence, will analyze various data points to forecast air traffic flows and identify potential conflicts. The platform is expected to reduce the workload on air traffic controllers and improve safety. The FAA plans to deploy the system initially in the Washington metropolitan area, with expansion to other parts of the country later. This development was reported by Unknown Source.
