Airport Traffic Control Ops

National and International airspace systems are challenged with the integration of unmanned aircraft and growth of more autonomous operations. ASSURE is well positioned with Airport Traffic Control ATC education, training, research, and testing within multiple partners in the alliance. From actual education and training programs for future controllers, to modeling and simulation, and flight test ranges ASSURE has previous controllers and other subject matter experts working opportunities and challenges in the safe and efficient integration of manned, unmanned, and autonomous operations into both US and international transportation infrastructure.
