Air Traffic Control Systems at Dubai Airports to Be Powered by AI

Air traffic control systems at Dubai International Airport and Al Maktoum International Airport are to be powered by artificial intelligence to boost efficiency.

The high-tech upgrade, called the Integrated Air Traffic Control Suite, will also be delivered and installed at Emirates Flight Academy and the Contingency Operations Centre.

The technology aims to make the challenging job of an air traffic controller easier, as it reduces air traffic controllers' workload and increases safety
