Air Traffic Control

Thales TopSky – ATC is the world’s most advanced air traffic control automation solution, designated to control en route, approach and oceanic traffic, both in civil and military environments.

Customers have come to rely on high performance, high availability, fail-safe, adaptable and modular TopSky - ATC to ensure safe and efficient airspace operations.

Thales is offering an integrated, customisable ATM system designed by controllers for controllers, which provides the key features to improve controllers’ situational awareness and decision-making. Enhance airport safety, optimise your costs and increase airport efficiency, all while contributing to reduce the environmental impact of your activity​.

Efficiently matching capacity to the uncertain growing demand is the main challenge for ANSPs as aviation restarts. An increased need for efficiency emerges as a result from the lower revenues of ANSPs during the lockdowns. With increasing environmental consciousness, emission reduction is now an essential need for aviation. Thanks to its cutting-edge traffic demand forecast, and sectorisation plan optimizer, TopSky - Flow Manager is instrumental in solving these challenges. 

In an increasingly data-reliant automated environment, the smooth and timely flow of accurate, high-quality digital information between aviation actors is of critical importance.  Flight plans, NOTAMS, navigation data need to be shared to all airspace users.  

Thales has developed TopSky – AIM for an effective and trusted aeronautical information management, accessible to all, answering the latest standards and reducing the need for human intervention.

The most complete, reliable and scalable Aeronautical Message Handling System.  

This solution reduces the environmental inefficiencies that can occur during arrivals and departures and optimizes runway capacity, at airports of all size. All thanks to fostered collaboration between Approach and Tower controllers.
