Terma helps to secure a safe travel to the Olympics in Brazil
Two SCANTER 5502 Surface Movement Radars from Terma are installed in Rio de Janeiro.
Two SCANTER 5502 Surface Movement Radars from Terma are installed in Rio de Janeiro as part of the system used by Air Traffic Controllers to secure safe travel for hundreds of thousands of visitors during the Olympics in Rio de Janeiro.
The purpose of the Surface Movement Radar is to maximize safety in airports by monitoring, advising, and instructing aircraft, vehicles, personnel etc. moving around on the ground in an airport. A radar is very suitable for this purpose as it covers a large area and operates independently of light conditions (day/night), visibility conditions e.g. fog, and possible precipitation e.g. rain and snow.
The delivery was part of the Brazilian Airport Administration company INFRARERO’s investment in airports before the World Cup in Soccer in 2014.
Well above 100 major airports worldwide are equipped with Surface Movement Radars from Terma.
