The Federal Aviation Administration says the focus of the new airfield surveillance system called Surface Awareness Initiative is to reduce the risk of runway incursions by improving air traffic controllers ' situational awareness.data to display surface traffic to controllers at airports that don't have a surface surveillance tool. Aircraft and ADS-B -equipped vehicles appear as icons on an airport map that depicts runways, taxiways, hold ramps, and other areas.
AUS said in a statement that it strongly supports the FAA's investment that will further enhance runway safety and is grateful for their airport to be selected to receive the new SAI system.
