LFV MAKES SWEDEN MORE ACCESSIBLE WITH DIGITALISAT
ION The digitalisation of air traffic management is going on right now, and it is under way all over the world. With the digitalisation of air traffic management in general, and the remote air traffic services in particular, LFV contributes to a more accessible Sweden. It is in line with the Government's digitalisation strategy. In April 2016, LFV and Swedavia signed an intention agreement for investigation of the prerequisites for remote air traffic services, at some of Swedavia's airports. After one and a half year of investigation, the agreement was signed in November 2017, entailing that LFV and Swedavia establishes RTS at four of Swedavia's airports – Kiruna, Umeå, Östersund and Malmö. Why is LFV investing in remote air traffic services? LFV is a State-owned enterprise and an authority under the Swedish Ministry of Enterprise and Innovation. In the Government's Ordinance and instruction for LFV, our primary role is described "to provide safe, efficient and environmentally adapted air navigation services for civil and military aviation". The instruction remits LFV to take responsibility for the research and innovation, which is warranted by the authority's tasks. LFV will also contribute to the comprehensive transport policy objective to ensure that financially efficient, long-term, sustainable transports is provided for the citizens and the industry all over the country. In addition, the Swedish Parliament has determined a functional objective – availability, and a consideration objective – safety, environment, and health. To this we can add the extensive requirement from EU to streamline the union's air traffic service providers, the customers' demands for smart and efficient solutions, and the digitalisation going on in all parts of the society. Whatever we do as citizens in Sweden today, as travellers in public transport, health care consumers, TV watchers, or as bank customers, we are affected by and come into contact with the digitalisation. LFV’s work with remote air traffic control is to be regarded against that background. LFV has developed the operative concept for this during more than ten years, ever since the idea was born in the middle of the last decade. When the Swedish Transport Agency gave LFV the operative approval for remote control of Örnsköldsvik Airport in October 2014, and we inaugurated the control centre in Sundsvall in April 2015, it vouched for this being a technology and a safe working operative concept for aviation, in which we soon will have three years of experience. At the end of December Sundsvall Timrå Airport was connected to the centre. Remote air traffic services is a technology development, approved by EU and supported by EU funds for research, and have been followed with curiosity by the whole world of aviation. Thousands of visitors, both Swedish and foreign, have come to Sundsvall to see, learn, and think about how the technology can be adapted best in their home countries. Sweden has an advantage, but we are far from alone; Norway, Germany, Italy, the US, and Australia are just a few of the countries developing their own versions of remote air traffic services. If Örnsköldsvik and Sundsvall are remote air traffic services for smaller airports, we currently are scaling the product to a larger and strongly customer-driven product to meet the requirements mentioned above. Since air traffic management is a large cost for the airports, and with the rationalisation and efficiency the digitalisaion provides, LFV increases the possibilities for a more accessible Sweden.
