FIPS – Flight Information Processing
Module
Comprehensive flight data
processing means a lot of work.
Aircraft movements have to be
continually monitored, resources have
to be evaluated and assigned, various
types of information from diverse
sources have to be interpreted and
forwarded to other systems – and
everything at the same time. An
extensive data collection and
processing system is indispensable for
modern airport operation. In close
co-operation with airport officials,
our engineers focus on creating fully
automated systems where user
involvement is only required when
resource conflicts occur. With precise
online conflict evaluation, our Flight
Information Processing System (FIPS) is
able to analyze any problem and provide
transparent messaging, enabling users
to take immediate action and reducing
problem-solving time.

Using automated online technology
The UFIS real-time systems are designed
to automatically evaluate and process
many different sources of flight
information, such as incoming telexes
or ATC information. With FIPS, you can
maintain a continually updated flight
plan, the basis for efficient
organization. FIPS visualizes all
inbound and outbound traffic,
supervises aircraft stand and gate
assignments, and generates all
necessary information for ground
operations support. Making the most of
the benefits of a client-server
architecture, FIPS adds high
performance to a powerful database.
FIPS is used to process daily flight
information as well as to create and
edit flight schedules using powerful
planning tools.
With our flight information processing
system...
you will reach a new degree of
efficiency. FIPS simplifies complex
daily tasks, enhances the reliability
of operation support services, and thus
increases safety. The online
visualization of aircraft ground
activity and the ability to control it
with point & click and drag & drop
technologies are the keys to the
success of this system.
FIPS is a cornerstone of our Universal
Flight Information System (UFIS), where
all systems are designed to meet the
complex requirements of today's
airports and to accommodate facility
and customer demands for tomorrow.
Their flexibility safeguards your
investment for the future.
