- Finite Resources
• - Ever increasing growth
• - Saturation of Capacity
• - Contingencies
C-ATFM Project- Background
• June 2014: Contract for C-ATFM awarded to M/S ATech, Brazil.

• 2015-16 : “SKY FLOW” installed at Central Command Center

(CCC) at Delhi and Flow Management Positions (FMP) at 6
airports

• 19-26 January 2017 : Operational Trials commenced

• 27th April 2017 : Fully Operational

Process of Implementation

Phase I • Airport (Ground)Delay Program

• Airport Arrival Constraints e.g. weather, runway outage
27th April 2017 • Addressing constraints of Six Major Airports

Phase II • Ground Delay Program and Airspace Flow programs supporting

Airspace Congestion & DCB at most airports across Country
• Interconnectivity among ATFM –ACDM systems
2017-19 • Availability of WEB Services for all stakeholders

Phase III
• Ability to exchange information with adjacent ATFM Systems

CCC Assessment Process
• Which airports are congested?
• When and for how long? To what extent?
• Can the situation be managed without
restrictions?
• How many aircraft are impacted?
• What time is the expected impact?
• Do we have the time for customers’
collaboration?
• What measures are to be used to
balance demand with capacity (i.e., ADP,
GSt)
