Technology innovation

Air traffic is evolving, with new technologies emerging and new types of vehicles sharing our airspace. We’re committed to ensuring that the country’s air navigation system remains at the forefront of efficiency and innovation.

Since 1996, we’ve invested more than $2.6 billion in the air navigation system, developing and deploying advanced air traffic management and surveillance tools that have led to significant improvements in safety, efficiency, capacity and environmental sustainability.

Together with industry partners, we’re deploying space-based air traffic surveillance that uses satellites to extend air traffic visibility across the entire planet.

We play a key role in the remotely piloted aircraft system (RPAS) industry and are taking a leading role in the development of an RPAS traffic management environment.
