Logipix Turnaround management in the laars

The Logipix Turnaround Management Module in LAARS is developed to assist ground handling services during turnarounds. Individually installed cameras provides high-resolution visual feedback of ground services. The module facilitates the whole registration process and realizes a precise, simultaneous stand management. It helps explore bottlenecks in turnarounds examining the registered data and recorded video. It also supports the analysis of ground services that contributes to shorten turnaround times and gain financial benefits.

Highlights

High-resolution video streams – The Logipix Turnaround Management Module ceases the era of blind data or radio communication-based turnaround management, as its core concept is built around high-resolution video technology.
Real-time and delayed service registration – Operators can watch and follow ground services on multiple stands. They can precisely register the processes real-time or they can rewind or fast forward the recorded footage to find the exact service start and end times.
Manual & VCA assisted operation – The Turnaround Management Module is available in full manual or VCA assisted versions.
Interactive timelines – The system collects and visualizes stand allocation and service schedules on interactive timelines with color-coded time-frames.
Interactive map – The module provides interactive map visualization, where operators can zoom in and pan to the area of interest. The map displays aircraft movements, stand allocations and statuses.
Valuable statistics – Automatic calculations can be made from the registered turnaround data to identify critical paths and processes to improve turnaround times.
Precise multiple stand management – Operators can quickly browse among stands and check the progress of the turnarounds. They can use an overview interface that shows all scheduled turnarounds and easily select one to monitor the services in details.
manual operation
Using the basic Turnaround Management Module operators can manage multiple turnarounds simultaneously. They receive continuous high-resolution visual feedback on services around the airplanes. They can manually register all processes real-time or postponed in the online archive mode, accurately to the second.
vca assisted operation
The Turnaround Management Module is available in an advanced version, wherein automatic Video Content Analysis assists the registration of some operations.
The Logipix VCA can detect the presence and classify different objects. It can accurately track the motion of airplanes and various ground equipments. Depending on the applied resolution and chosen point of view the algorithms can detect even complex processes.
