An Aerodrome Simulator is a high-fidelity training and operational simulation system designed to replicate the environment and operations of an aerodrome (airport), particularly focusing on Air Traffic Control (ATC) activities on the ground and immediate surrounding airspace. The Aerodrome Simulator encompasses both operational and maintenance guidelines essential for the effective use and upkeep of the simulator. Within the Operational Manual, detailed instructions are provided for the core modules, including the 3D Generator, Image Generator, Playback, Supervisor, Pseudo Pilot, and Controller modules, all of which are integral to creating and managing realistic training scenarios. Additionally, the Maintenance Manual section outlines routine maintenance procedures, focusing on critical tasks such as device maintenance, 3D generator upkeep, and playback maintenance
Can integrate with emerging systems like remote towers, AI-powered decision support, and AR/VR interfaces.Scalability means the simulator can be expanded or adapted based on the needs of the organization, airport, or training program. It ensures the system can grow without needing a full replacement. ✈️ Example Features of Scalability: Multiple Airport Models: Can simulate different aerodromes (small, regional, international). Multi-User Training: Support for training multiple ATCOs (tower, ground, clearance delivery) at the same time. Add-On Modules: Can include aircraft emergencies, vehicle movement simulation, weather changes, etc. Remote/Distributed Access: Scenarios can be run at multiple locations or through cloud systems.
Built-in tools for performance tracking, playback, and instructor feedback to improve learning outcomes.
Facilitates safe evaluation of new airport layouts, ATC procedures, or technologies before deployment.
Enables trainees to practice without endangering real aircraft or passengers, ensuring safety while learning.
Allows simulation of routine, unusual, and emergency situations tailored to any airport, traffic level, or weather condition.
