New Delhi: Authorities at the Indira Gandhi International Airport Friday said that they have implemented pro-active measures to minimise inconvenience to passengers due to the upcoming fog season.
"The true game changer this fog season would be the introduction of Delhi Airport Collaborative Decision Making (DA-CDM)," said I.Prabhakara Rao, chief executive of Delhi International Airport Limited (DIAL), the company which manages the IGIA.
"A move that would allow us to recover much faster at the time of flight disruptions during low visibility condition."
The DA-CDM is a system which works by collating all the stake-holders inputs like that from airport operator, Air Traffic Control (ATC) and Indian Meteorological Department (IMD), through an automated system to increase overall airport efficiency.
The data is then used to plan optimum utilisation of ATC resources, runways for reducing workload of ATC controllers and ground delays.
The information is also passed on to airlines and passengers.
