A key session at Airspace World 2024, in the Frequentis Theatre on 19 March, will explore the opportunities and challenges in artificial intelligence (AI) implementation.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The technology is paving the way for a smarter, more efficient air traffic management system. But, Mark Cooper, Vice President, Chief Technology and Information Officer, NAV CANADA and one of the panellists, says it is important to realise that humans are integral to AI development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cToday and in the near future we have to treat AI as a way to improve the human and to make information available to our highly skilled controllers to improve safety, efficiency and sustainability,\u201d he notes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Because the human-AI interaction is vital, recruitment is especially important going forward. \u201cSetting the right vision and creating the right environment is critical for attracting the right people,\u201d says Cooper. \u201cThat said, AI is evolving so quickly that we all need to partner with a variety of companies and academia to develop the right solutions that meet the business need.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt all depends on how we position ourselves,\u201d he continues. \u201cYes, the historical reputation of air navigation service providers (ANSPs) is to move slowly. But our industry is also fascinating and touches millions of people.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Although the industry is in the very early stages of AI, the potential for the technology to revolutionise ATM systems cannot be questioned. AI will improve the on-time performance of airlines, increase automation in corporate functions and assist with the development and testing of systems, for example. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe have been experimenting with AI in controller training and it\u2019s an area that fills me with excitement,\u201d Cooper adds. \u201cUsing AI to provide real time feedback and on-demand simulations targeted at the specific needs of the trainee can only help to increase the pass rate from controller training and reduce the time from \u2018street to seat\u2019. Within operations we are focusing on decision support and augmenting the air traffic controller with additional information to make the best possible decision.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cooper accepts that gaining certification for AI into safety critical systems is going to be a significant challenge, which is why NAV CANADA is focusing on decision support. Both ANSPs and regulators have a lot of work ahead in this respect though an excellent start has been made by the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) with its roadmap for AI certification.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cMost ANSPs have a significant amount of legacy technology, so moving forward to AI is especially challenging \u2013 but also essential,\u201d concludes Cooper.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
