From Sky to Screen: ADS-B at the Core of Today’s Air Traffic Monitoring

Posted on by softech softech

In recent years, air traffic has undergone a quiet yet decisive technological evolution. One of the most significant innovations is the ADS-B system (Automatic Dependent Surveillance–Broadcast), now used worldwide to enhance aircraft surveillance both in the air and on the ground.

What Is ADS-B and Why Is It Essential for the Aviation Industry?

ADS-B (Automatic Dependent Surveillance–Broadcast) is a surveillance technology that allows aircraft to automatically broadcast their position, speed, altitude, and other flight data using GPS signals. Unlike traditional radar systems, which rely on ground-based equipment to detect and track aircraft, ADS-B enables real-time data sharing directly from the aircraft to air traffic controllers and other nearby equipped aircraft.

This system is “automatic” because it requires no pilot input, “dependent” because it relies on GPS data, and “broadcast” because it continuously transmits information without a specific request.

For airports and air traffic management, ADS-B represents a major step forward in terms of safety, efficiency, and situational awareness. It supports more precise flight tracking, reduces the risk of mid-air collisions, and optimizes airspace usage—even in remote or radar-limited regions.

As a result, ADS-B has become a cornerstone technology in the modernization of global air traffic surveillance systems.

Softech’s approach: leveraging SARA Ground for effective ground control

At Softech, we integrate ADS-B technology into our noise monitoring systems—and beyond. The integration of ADS-B allows us to accurately correlate flight tracks with detected acoustic data, ensuring reliable monitoring even in the absence of radar data or in situations where such data may be partial or outdated. This approach enables us to offer a continuous, accurate, and radar-independent monitoring system, increasing the overall reliability of the analysis.

In our SARA GROUND product, ADS-B technology is one of the main data sources used to precisely and continuously monitor aircraft movements on the ground. Thanks to data transmitted directly from aircraft, we can detect position, direction, and speed during taxiing, parking, and movements between gates, stands, and runways.

This information is displayed on an interactive map within the platform, allowing airport operators to continuously monitor movements, reduce the risk of interference or congestion, and optimize the use of airside infrastructure.

SARA GROUND also enables:

– Monitoring the usage percentage of each apron area, supporting Pavement Management Systems with real operational data;

– Real-time tracking and analysis of aircraft ground movements, helping improve safety;

– Operational optimization of ramp and runway areas;

– Improved safety and environmental efficiency, contributing to the reduction of time, fuel consumption, and emissions, in line with airport sustainability goals.

The integration of ADS-B with other data sources makes SARA GROUND a suitable solution for a wide range of airports, also from the perspective of sustainability and operational efficiency.

The module is already in use at several airports, where it is combined with specialized consultancy and provides detailed, accurate mapping of airside movements. It is also a strategic tool for airport operators aiming to ensure maximum operational and environmental transparency.

Towards a more integrated airport management

ADS-B is now a well-established technology that makes air transport safer, more transparent, and more efficient. For airport operators, integrating this data means creating value, optimizing processes, and addressing both environmental and operational challenges in the aviation sector.

By incorporating ADS-B into our systems, we provide our clients with advanced solutions to monitor ramp vehicles and GSE, enhance operational safety, and contribute to the reduction of emissions and operational costs.

Highway Control Room: Where Mobility Takes Shape

Posted on by softech softech

The highway control room is the operational nerve center of motorway management — the place where information converges, strategic decisions are made, and mobility is coordinated in real time. In this environment, technology plays a critical role, enabling continuous monitoring, fast communication, and efficient traffic control.

Advanced Monitoring Systems

Inside the control room, operators rely on a network of advanced, integrated systems. Numerous high-resolution multifunction displays provide real-time data on traffic flow, weather conditions, and infrastructure status. This unified visualization platform ensures a comprehensive situational overview, empowering operators to make timely, informed decisions.

Seamless Communication

Reliable, uninterrupted communication is essential. The control room maintains constant, bidirectional contact with field personnel, centralized traffic management centers, and road users. This seamless information flow supports rapid incident response, real-time coordination, and adaptive traffic management strategies.

Softech’s Technological Expertise

For over 30 years, we have been designing and developing advanced technological solutions for this ecosystem:
intuitive interfaces, integrated platforms, and tools that support front-line operators in managing the complexity of the road network.

Our VEGA system integrates dedicated software applications with next-generation sensors to address the diverse needs of our clients in areas such as traffic management, user information, and roadside assistance coordination.
Its web-based architecture is scalable and can interface with our roadside cabinets — capable of monitoring up to 8 lanes simultaneously — as well as with IoT sensors for rest area management, and with third-party cameras and/or sensors.

Because the real challenge is not just reacting to the unexpected, but preventing congestion, optimizing traffic flows, and ensuring service continuity — day and night.

Smart mobility starts here!
In a room filled with screens, operators, and algorithms… where every decision matters.

Posted on by softech softech

Milano Linate wins the aci europe best airport awards 2023!

The city airport of the Lombard capital was awarded the Europe Best Airport Award 2023, in the category of airports between 5 and 10 million passengers.

The judges of ACI, an association that represents 500 airports in 55 European countries, positively evaluated the innovative and technological projects used to make the passenger experience increasingly dynamic, fast and safe (among these are the new security checkpoints which have the new Eds-Cb machines and FaceBoarding), but what was decisive was the recognition of the “important work done in recent years on the issue of sustainability and decarbonisation in the airport sector“.

Innovation & Sustainability

Reaching the airport via the underground, the choice of alternative fuels (Saf and hydrogen) and “Urban air mobility” are among the main objectives of the Milanese airport which is investing considerable resources and time to continue on its decarbonisation process: Milan Linate in fact, it has achieved level 4+ of the Airport Carbon Accreditation and is committed to achieving ‘Net zero emissions‘ in 2030, twenty years ahead of what was set by the European airport sector.

a sustainability project that has lasted for twenty years

Since 2003, Milan Linate has chosen to equip itself with our environmental monitoring systems to analyze the impact of air traffic both on noise pollution levels; thanks to the fixed and mobile control units mounted on sensitive areas, it guarantees an efficient service to passengers but at the same time sustainable for the communities adjacent to the infrastructure.

Milano Linate is an example of success in the airport sector and we are proud to be able to count it among our longest-standing customers.

IoT: the paradigma that makes world smarter

Posted on by softech softech

With Internet of Things (IoT) we refer to the process of connecting physical objects of daily use to the Internet; potentially, each object can acquire its own identity in the digital world.

The idea behind the IoT is to make objects “intelligent” by interconnecting them, in order to exchange information owned, collected and / or processed.

A borderless paradigma

The Internet of Things is a paradigm that does not know, potentially, application boundaries: from cars that communicate with the road infrastructure to prevent accidents (smart mobility), to household appliances that coordinate to optimize the use of power ( smart home), to the production plants that exchange data with the products for the management of their life cycle, etc.

Each object can be made intelligent, that is, connected and communicating. By becoming “talking”, things allow us to inaugurate a horizon of new services capable of improving the quality of our life and our work. Everything becomes smart: more intelligent, more comfortable and more useful.

The starring in the IoT network

The undisputed protagonists of IoT systems are sensors, that is all those devices that allow to collect data that are then analyzed and processed in order to produce the knowledge necessary to react and make decisions. Decisions that can also be made by the objects themselves (eg: Smart Building).

There is a wide range of devices that can be inserted into an IoT network: from video cameras, to light detectors, to motion and proximity sensors to sound sensors, and so on.

The data collected by the sensors are aggregated by the gateway which, through the network, transmits them to other devices; in order to “talk”, the sensors must be connected.

The connection at the base of the IoT network

Traditional networks, which we normally rely on to obtain connectivity (Wi-Fi or 3G / 4G) bring with them various problems; to better understand, we report some wireless technologies in a graph, grouping them by range of action and bandwidth.

Cellular communications (such as 2G, 3G, 4G, indicated in the orange area) transfer medium to large amounts of data over a wide range of coverage; they are certainly suitable for outdoor use. For the purposes of the IoT network, however, the cost of the technology appears excessive.

The wireless technologies (in green) are also suitable for communications of medium to large amounts of data but within a range of a few meters, therefore ideal for indoors. They do not require a subscription and therefore have a reduced cost. However they do affect the battery life which should be changed too often.

LoRa, on the other hand, is a Low power wide area technology, which facilitates the development of networks in which nodes require “low mobility” and very limited data exchange, and are characterized by very low energy consumption.

LoRa becomes LoRaWAN when to the physical layer we add the MAC (Media Access Control) layer necessary to extend the communication to the internet.

What is LoRaWAN?

The LoRa Alliance describes LoRaWan as “a Low Power, Wide Area (LPWA) network protocol designed to wirelessly connect battery-powered ‘objects’ to the Internet in regional, national or global networks and addresses the key requirements of the Internet of Things (IoT) such as two-way communication, end-to-end security, mobility and location services. “. The LoRaWAN protocol is a Low Power Wide Area Networking (LPWAN) communication protocol that runs on LoRa. The LoRaWAN specification is open so that anyone can set up and manage a LoRa network.

Main features:

  • Long range: allows a throw of up to 50 km.
  • Low battery consumption: LoRa technology allows to obtain a sensor battery life of over 10 years.
  • Bi-directional communication.
  • Geolocation: allows localization without the need for GPS.
  • Cost reduction: infrastructure, maintenance costs, the cost of sensors.
  • Interoperability: any LoRaWan sensor can be connected to an existing network.
  • Security: data is end-to-end encrypted.

Solutions by Softech

The IoT sensors developed by Softech communicate via the LoRaWAN protocol and are equipped with specific software for analyzing the data collected from a cognitive and / or predictive point of view.

In our portfolio of IoT solutions, systems dedicated to SMART CITY, thanks to which it is possible to detect data: on traffic, on the use of a certain service, on air quality, on vibrations and noises … but also data relating to the geolocation of infrastructures (such as parking for the disabled, charging stations for electric vehicles, etc.) or on the frequency of transit of means of transport or access to a digital platform, etc.

In particular, we have devised a SMART PARKING system that is particularly innovative because it is not intended for monitoring stalls, but aimed at facilitating control by the competent authorities and making the city areas safe.

Moreover

With the appropriate adjustments, the IoT can also be used for developments with a view to SMART BUILDING: and this is exactly what our SARA IoT system does, which allows you to monitor multiple factors (not only environmental ones) inside the airports, and to activate intelligent responses when certain thresholds are reached. The system can also be applied to contexts other than the airport, such as public offices and smart buildings.

Also on the motorway, with the same technology, we have created a system for SAFETY in parking areas which is characterized by reduced costs, ease of installation and the possibility of integration with sensors for other functions (click here to find out more).

Environment & building sites: perks of widespread monitoring

Posted on by softech softech

Dismantling, transformation, construction: these are some of the activities that characterize the site. By their very nature they are dynamic activities, which produce polluting emissions of a sound but also atmospheric type and whose effects affect the surrounding environment and the so-called “receptors”.

The Consolidated Safety Act (Legislative Decree 81/08) provides that the employer assesses all the risks resulting from the exposure of the so-called recipients to physical agents, including noise and vibrations.

The permanent decrease in hearing capacity or hearing loss due to noise is the best known of the effects due to prolonged exposure over time to high noise levels and is still one of the most widespread occupational diseases today.

For this reason, art. 183 of the same decree, establishes that “Taking into account technical progress and the availability of measures to control the risk at source, the risks deriving from exposure to physical agents are eliminated at source or reduced to a minimum“.

However, noise is not the only danger for the exposed subjects; Among the atmospheric pollutants, PM 10 and PM 2.5 are certainly the best known in the construction sector. It is particulate matter, or particles of more or less fine dust generated by the processes which, dispersing in the air, create a mixture (“atmospheric aerosol”) with the liquid particles there suspended.

The most serious effects of prolonged exposure to PM10 and PM2.5 include respiratory disorders such as cough and phlegm, asthma, decreased lung capacity, decreased respiratory function and chronic bronchitis; to these are added effects on the cardiovascular system and even a greater risk of respiratory tract-cancers.

Defining and implementing an adequate monitoring plan is therefore essential to know the real environmental impact of work activities, but also (and above all) to ensure a safe working environment.

The benefits of widespread monitoring

In most construction sites, the environmental monitoring plan already provides for environmental monitoring to be conducted at specific points and with specific instruments, which allow for very precise but localized information.

With the aim of making safety procedures more efficient, a capillary monitoring network would be desirable. Knowing the situation of the entire construction site area and not just some areas of it, would allow greater safety, a better perception of the working environment, but also an efficiency of time and costs, reducing the risk of sanctions, costs health, suspension of activities.

Smart solutions are currently available on the market, They integrate the certified detection network with low-cost sensors, creating a more or less widespread network according to needs.

SOFTECH has a solution

In Softech, we have developed a cloud solution, specifically designed for construction sites; the indoor / outdoor monitoring network, which can be extended according to needs, is equipped with a consultation and analysis portal and a warning-threshold exceeding and reporting system.

Designed for non-technical personnel, it guarantees ease of use thanks to the simple and intuitive man / machine interface.

–> The “LIVE” module

it allows the real-time visualization of: 

  • Noise and Air Quality level
  • Weather condition graphs 
  • Detail of the monitoring stations with real-time graphs  
  • With an adequately equipped station, it is possible to listen to the noise measurements live 

It can take on the characteristics of an info sharing module with the client, employees and / or territorial stakeholders.

–> Analysis module

It allows a detailed analysis of the situation and can be used by specialized personnel in order to identify critical situations (even if only potential) to be monitored in detail and / or to activate timely and adequate countermeasures. Among the functions:

  • Time- History of noise / air and weather events 
  • Sonogram and frequency graphs  
  • Graphic analysis of environmental air quality parameters 
  • Average graphs 
  • Time-history of positioning and relocation of the control units 
–> Report & Alert module

Lastly, the system allows the setting of alert-thresholds exceeded and the automatic and personalized creation of detailed reports.

The reports can also be shared directly with the Contracting Authority or the control body in charge.

It is composed by: 

  • Standard and customizable reports creating tool
  • Report tabs: Events, Alarms, Calibration, Indices 
  • Tabular and calendar display
  • Data, reports and graphs can be exported in the most common formats (xlsx, PDF, PNG, etc.) 

The alert function, on the other hand, when predefined thresholds for the detected levels are exceeded (thresholds that can be defined during the configuration phase and in agreement with the Contracting Authority), sends alerts to the personnel in charge via SMS or email, allowing timely intervention.

Catania Fontanarossa: “Hub of southern Italy”

Posted on by softech softech

Although far from those of the same pre-pandemic period, the numbers on passenger traffic at Italian airports recorded by ASSAEROPORTI for the summer of 2021 show a positive trend that bodes well for a recovery in the sector.

Among the airports with the best performances: the Marconi of Bologna, the Airport of Cagliari, Rome Fiumicino and Catania Fontanarossa.

The latter in the single month of July recorded a +121% of passengers compared to 2020 and a -19.96% compared to 2019: a negative percentage but still important considering the restrictions and limitations (especially to Extra-EU flights) still in act. Recognizing the importance of the results obtained was also the new chairman of ENAC Pierluigi Di Palma, who during his visit to the airport, on August 10, expressed admiration for what, in his opinion, should be << the hub of southern Italy >> ( click for the source).

The success can be partly explained by the novelties introduced to facilitate users, such as the kiss&fly areas, parking promotions, health checks and passenger screening.

➡ BUT CATANIA WAS ALREADY FLYING HIGH BEFORE THE PANDEMIC

In fact, in 2019, it was ranked in fifth position among the top ten Italian airports: nice goal for the Etnean airport, which also preceded Milan Linate and Naples in the ranking ( ASSAEROPORTI).

At the base of these excellent results, SAC’s willingness to invest and innovate in order to improve and make infrastructure and technologies more efficient; this predisposition is also found in the environmental management implemented by the company.

And we know it well: for almost 20 years we have been collaborating with the airport on environmental matters, providing systems and complementary products dedicated to monitoring noise and air quality.

➡ SINCE 2005 IT HAS INSTALLED OUR MONITORING AND ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS SYSTEM SARA

One of the most complete systems, which has grown over the years to meet the specific needs of the airport, capable of analyzing the impact of air traffic on both noise pollution levels and air quality. The data collected is made available to the public via the website (with a link to ours Public Viewer) and on Environmental Totems installed in the gates, as proof of transparency and reliability.

And there is more: Catania Fontanarossa was also the first airport in Italy to equip itself with a CONTROL ROOM completely dedicated to environmental issues; it is a suitable work area in which both the activities of use of the monitoring system and the presentation of the system itself to external subjects such as control bodies (ARPA, etc.) or other qualified subjects can be carried out.

➡ BUT AIRPORT POLLUTION IS NOT ONLY THE FAULT OF AIRCRAFT

SAC knows it well. This is why, alongside the SARA “fully equipped” system, it has added EAGLE4AIRPORTS, our airport fleet management system which allows you to keep under control the CO2 emissions of vehicles other than aircraft (passenger buses , towing trolleys, vehicles for maintenance / luggage transport, etc.) together with other functions .

In short,a full-circle monitoring, which makes the airport truly at the forefront of implementing and sharing environmental best practices.

➡ INNOVATION, SUSTAINABILITY AND FORESIGHT

seem to be the winning cards of Catania Fontanarossa, an example of success in the airport sector that we are proud to count among our customers..

SMART PARKING: KEYDRIVER FOR SMART CITIES

Posted on by softech softech

A smart city is an urban area in which, thanks to the use of digital technologies and more generally of technological innovation, it is possible to optimize and improve the infrastructures and services to citizens, making them more efficient.

According to a classification made by the University of Vienna, there are 6 factors that distinguish a smart city, that is:

  • Smart economy
  • Smart living
  • Smart environment
  • Smart mobility
  • Smart people
  • Smart governance

KEYWORD: CONNECTIVITY

The combination of smart city and connectivity will lead to a new frontier of mobility in which data-driven technologies will make the difference.

Technological innovation and, in particular, the Internet of Things (IoT) has opened the doors to countless possibilities; Sensor networks and Long Range technologies (LoRaWAN) are the basis of the smart revolution in every area of city management (think of smart lighting systems, smart metering, etc.).

But intelligence also means guaranteeing the inhabitants a more sustainable city and infrastructures capable of improving the quality of their life, which means greater attention to the environment, but also to mobility.

According to the EPA (European Parking Association), 30% of urban pollution depends on traffic due to the search for parking. Not only CO2 emissions are increasing but also the stress of motorists who are estimated to spend between 2.5 and 10 days a year looking for a parking space, with an average annual waste of diesel fuel of about € 310.

SMART PARKING is the solution

To cope with the situation, it is possible to use one of the many smart parking systems available on the market, some of which are also very complex and able to integrate with parking surveillance and payment systems, with a consequent financial commitment on the part of the buyer.

But the benefits are significant and can already be obtained with a low cost but technologically advanced system such as our Open Parking.

Born in collaboration with some municipal bodies, the project involves the installation on the stalls of special magnetic technology sensors, able to read the presence or absence of a vehicle on the stall and send the communication to a central platform using the low range network ( LoRa).

The information is provided to users in charge of control, but also to surveillance and to citizens who, through an app, will be able to easily identify free stalls and be guided along the route. They will also be able to report any dangerous conditions on the stall, infringements by other users or malfunction of the app.

The advantages deriving from the installation of Open Parking are even more relevant if related to the economic investment required: low consumption, low maintenance required, and long battery life mean that in addition to being smart, Open Parking is also a solution low cost.

Do you know what a Supersonic Bang is?

Posted on by softech softech

Any object that produces noise, generates sound waves (simple pressure variations) that spread in the air in a uniform and concentric way with respect to the source; if the object moves, as in the case of an airplane, these waves will generate a conical shape, that is they will be closer to each other in the direction in which the object proceeds and more spaced behind it.

In this picture, pressure waves of air flowing off an airplane

The faster a plane goes, the more the waves are compressed with one another, until, reaching the speed of sound, they add up to each other: at which point the plane will break the sound barrier, producing a strong noise (whose intensity will be the sum of the sound waves produced) that will continue until the plane continues to proceed at supersonic speed (but it will continue to be audible only by those who are “inside” the MACH CONE and that follows the moving object).

In this picture, the sound barrier is broken by an Eurofighter

Last year our noise monitoring systems recorded the sonic bang produced by two Eurofighters of the Italian Air Force that took off to intercept an Air France Boeing 777 aircraft that had lost radio contact with the Italian control bodies; the event had great media coverage and caused concern among the people of Northern Italy, frightened by the loud noise.

These are the acoustic profiles of the monitoring stations: it is easily recognizable the moment in which the two Eurofighters have broken the wall of sound, creating the boom. The acoustic spectrum infact shows at that time two peaks very similar to the image of the broken sound barrier.

In such a situation, our systems recognize the anomaly of the recorded event and, if properly configured, send an alarm to the user.

The cases of sonic boom do not occur frequently (in 2017 they have been 64 worldwide) and in the future they may even decrease; infact, the first flight of the Lockheed Martin X-59 QueSST (where QueSST stands for Quiet Supersonic Transport) is expected in 2021. It is the experimental low-sonic boom developed by NASA (known as X- plane) and built by Lockheed Martin; It will be about thirty meters long, a little less than a Boeing 737, and can reach Mach 1.4 speed (speed of sound Mach=1), around 1,800 km / h. If it enters service, it will allow halving flight times on medium-haul routes.

in this picture the X-plane. The special form of wings and fuselage allows it to break the sound wall almost silently

But how can a supersonic plane not produce the bang when it overcomes the wall of sound?

This is due to the particular shape of wings and fuselage that allows it to cleave the air better and that give a particular conformation to the sound waves produced by the device; It should create a 75 Perceived Level decibel (PLdB) thump on ground, as loud as closing a car door, compared with 105-110 PLdB for the Concorde (that is one of only two supersonic transports to have been operated commercially; the other is the Soviet-built Tupolev Tu-144).

SIDs & STARs: Let’s discover the Standard Instruments

Posted on by softech softech

Standard instrument departures (SIDs) and standard instrument arrivals (STARs) are charted instrument procedure designs depicting the lateral profile that pilots must follow for landing or departing at suitably equipped aerodromes. Various level and speed restrictions apply along the route.

There is a standardized system of communication for SID and STAR procedures to ensure efficient and concise communication that would otherwise require long and complex radio transmissions between the pilot and air traffic control.

SID and STAR designs and standardized transmissions are an effective way of communicating a large amount of complex information for safe and efficient departures and arrivals and are in place worldwide through the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO).

There are 3 types of SID:

  1. Straight departure: procedure that does not require a turn greater than 15 ° with respect to the extension of the centerline of the runway.
  2. Turning departure: it is a type of procedure which requires a turn greater than 15 ° with respect to the extension of the centerline of the runway, the first turn must be performed upon reaching the TP (Turning Point) which guarantees minimum separation from the highest obstacle below it 120 m. This separation may vary according to the morphology of the terrain and the average wind recorded in the airport area.
  3. Omnidirectional departure: this is a type of procedure in which there is usually no radio assistance available to pilots to perform a normal SID. Pilots will be able to tack in any direction upon reaching a point published on the procedure map.

The carrying out of a SID is the responsibility of the pilot in command.

SARA software “Tracks” function

Some SIDs are developed solely to meet noise abatement requirements.
These types of restrictions require higher altitude starts, higher elevation gains, slower speeds and veers to avoid specific areas.

Airports monitor the correct application of the procedures for implementing the noise abatement rules.

Among the feasible solutions, the choice of a noise data monitoring and management system that also allows the analysis of radar tracks, such as SARA. In fact, our platform allows the airport to verify compliance with the SIDs and to apply penalties where necessary, so as to encourage compliance with noise abatement procedures.
