These systems will allow air traffic controllers to have an optimised overview of the ground traffic and offer runway incursion alert functionality to improve situational awareness.
NAV CANADA CNS Solutions director Warren Gosselin said: “The contract continues a successful relationship with Indra who we have worked with for more than 20 years.
“Throughout this relationship, their support and ability to adjust to our needs have been excellent, their solutions are very reliable and are adapted to meet our needs.”
For more than two decades, Indra is said to have been active in Canada, delivering more than 120 landing systems and nine surface movement systems.
