Nominations open for IHS Jane's ATC Awards 2016

Which projects do you think have been most significant in terms of improving safety, capacity, and efficiency over the past year?

IHS Jane's Airport Review invites readers to promote achievements in air traffic control (ATC) and air traffic management (ATM), for an awards ceremony in Madrid on 7 March 2016, held during the CANSO ATM Dinner before the World ATM Congress.

Entries are free of charge and open to companies involved in all areas of the ATC industry, whether they are national air navigation service providers, large-scale industry partnerships or new entrants to the sector.

Held annually since 2001, the awards celebrate improvements in ATC and airspace management during the past year across six categories:

- Enabling Technology : for contribution to enhanced capacity and safety;

- Environment : to recognise work on 'green' ATM concepts;

- Industry : reflecting a significant contribution by equipment suppliers;

- Technology : for small enterprises that have raised ATM performance;

- Service Provision : for contribution to safe and efficient airspace management; and

- Runway : for safety and efficiency on the runway and final approach

Representatives of NATS, Snowflake Software, DSNA, EUROCONTROL, IAA, and Exelis received the Enabling Technology Award in 2015. (IHS/Patrick Allen)

Nominations will be assessed by a panel of judges from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO), Eurocontrol, CANSO, the International Air Transport Association (IATA), the International Federation of Air Traffic Controllers' Association (IFATCA), and IHS Jane's.

The deadline for nominations is 27 November 2015.
