LEDI® Timer: A time display solution for managing air traffic

The LEDI® Timer is an advanced time display device, specifically designed for modernising air traffic management systems. Time display systems (OAT) play a key role in the efficient management of air traffic. 

As essential component of the air traffic control system (ATCS), OATs enable flight plans to be planned, coordinated and sequenced. 

With its cutting-edge technology and robust design, the LEDI® Timer ensures centralised, accurate and reliable outdoor display of the time and flight information display, paramount to the smooth running of ground operations in the aviation sector.

The importance of accurate time display in airports

The LEDI® Timer plays a crucial role in the aviation sector by enhancing flight management, punctuality and ensuring passenger satisfaction.

 

Modernisation des infrastructures

 Infrastructure modernisation

It enables airports to modernise their air traffic management display systems, making operations more efficient and reliable by integrating cutting-edge technologies ensuring time accuracy. The LEDI® Timer contributes to better coordination between the different airport stakeholders, thus ensuring smoother, more coordinated management of daily operations.

 

Amélioration de la gestion des vols

 Improved flight management

By displaying accurate and real-time information, the LEDI® Timer helps optimising flight punctuality and observing departure slots by providing ground crews and pilots with accurate time data. It reduces the risk of delays and misunderstandings. Therefore, airports can improve their punctuality rate, which is of paramount importance for ensuring passenger satisfaction as well as the reputation of both the airport and airline companies. This accuracy also allows for better resource management and more efficient planning of flight operations. 

The information displayed on time display systems play a crucial role in air navigation, since it provides both pilots and air traffic controllers with a visual representation of air traffic as well as real-time flight plans. This allows for efficient coordination between different civil aviation actors, thus ensuring the safety and smooth running of air traffic.

 

Sécurité accrue

 Increased safety

Air traffic is a complex system requiring meticulous coordination to ensure flight safety, efficiency and punctuality. Time display systems play a crucial role in this process, enabling precise control of air traffic between different airports.

By centralising crucial information and making it accessible to all stakeholders such as pilots, the ground personnel and the cabin crew, the LEDI® Timer contributes to strengthening safety by ensuring that all parties have access to the same reliable and synchronised time data. It eliminates errors that might lead to incidents or delays. Besides, the ability of the LEDI® Timer to integrate with existing flight information management systems (FIDS) ensures that information is distributed consistently and accurately throughout the airport.

The FIDS (Flight Information Display System) refers to the dynamic display system broadcasting in real time flight-related information, such as arrival and departure times, changes of gates or boarding areas, announcements, and so on.

 

Centralisation de l'information

 Centralisation of information

The LEDI® Timer offers a centralised platform for displaying essential information such as the flight number, departure times, weather alerts, refuelling rates and defrosting slots. Indeed, display systems provide real-time information on the current air traffic situation. 

This centralisation allows for better coordination and smoother communication between the different airport operational teams. They enable airline companies and airports to manage air traffic flows more efficiently and minimise delays and flight disruptions. 

With a clear, real-time overview of airport operations, teams can take safer and faster decisions, improving overall efficiency. Time display systems play a key role in enhancing the efficiency and the fluidity of air traffic.

 

Réduction de l'impact environnemental

 Reduction of the environmental impact

By optimising airport operations, the LEDI® Timer contributes to reducing emissions and environmental impact. Accurate time management reduces waiting times on the ground and unnecessary fuel consumption by aircraft. 

Besides, by facilitating more efficient planning, it minimises the use of additional resources. This more ecological approach helps airports reaching their sustainability goals. 

 

Satisfaction des clients

 Customer satisfaction

By improving quality of service and ensuring flight punctuality, the LEDI® Timer enhances passenger satisfaction and strengthens customer loyalty. It ensures a more enjoyable travel experience for passengers that can count on reliable information to help them plan their journeys.

 

The LEDI® Timer is an essential tool for airports looking to enhance their efficiency, safety and customer satisfaction, by offering a comprehensive display solution for managing air traffic and information.
