NOVA 9000 APPROACH AND ACC SYSTEMS Since 1991 NOVA 9000 Approach Control Systems have been in operation around the clock enabling safe and efficient services to be provided at airports all over the world. NOVA 9000 systems are modular and scalable, the Approach system may be a standalone system, or integrated with an FDPS, Electronic Flight Strip System and/or an A-SMGCS, providing a seamless transition from ground traffic situation to an approach picture and vice versa. In its ACC configuration the FDPS is included. The NOVA 9000 Controller Working Position (CWP) provides the Air Traffic Controller with a complete traffic situation display with optimum information. The HMI is extremely flexible and configurable, permitting users to reconfigure menu items, function keys, icons, settings, and other variable system parameters with ease. Controller settings and storage of these on-line is implemented such that individual preferences and role definitions can be created and stored. The HMI is influenced by Eurocontrol, and has been developed in cooperation with numerous civil aviation authorities throughout the world.
