Surface Movement Radar

Full Aerodrome traffic awareness

Ensure safe movement of aircraft, vehicles, baggage wagons and cargo at your airport. With our Surface Movement Radar you can see and track the airplane from it has landed to the time it’s safely parked and ready to unload. And again when it leaves from the terminal until take-off. With Enhanced SMR (eSMR) there is an optional capability to detect and track descending as well as ascending aircraft in a radius of 10,000m from the radar with an update rate of 1 sec.

Wind Farm Radar Mitigation

Detect and Track Small Air Targets Near Wind Farms

With our Wind Farm Radar Mitigation (WRM), inter-turbine visibility, detection and tracking of small air targets inside and around wind farms becomes a reality. Terma’s surveillance system is unique in providing these features.

Wide Area Protection

Secure Your Airport Outside and Inside the Perimeter

The perimeter line is often the weakest link and easiest point for unauthorized access into airside — both for civilian and military airports. With Wide Area Protection from Terma, you acquire best-in-class, mission-critical situational awareness. The system will make you aware of possible breaches before they happen, giving you more time to react. And if breaches do happen, the system will track and record every action of the intruder.
