Singapore to house new air traffic control command center

The centre will allow collaboration between stakeholders to improve air traffic management.

The Civil Aviation Authority of Singapore (CAAS) plans to establish a centralised command centre in Singapore over the next few years to improve air traffic management (ATM).

The command centre enables air traffic controllers (ATCOs) to collaborate with other professionals, including data scientists and meteorological specialists to optimise decision-making in air traffic control.

“Such an arrangement will encourage the exchange of ideas” Amy Khor, Minister of State for Transport, said during the 63rd International Federation of Air Traffic Controllers’ Associations.

Khor also mentioned that the centre will serve as a test bed for developing applications that will further enhance ATM.

Earlier in the year, CAAS set up the International Centre for Aviation Innovation (ICAI) to drive innovation by tapping governments, industries, and research institutes around the world.

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
