FAA tees up $875M AI tool to help manage air traffic congestion
摘要
美国联邦航空管理局计划推出名为SMART的人工智能工具,用于协助空中交通管制员管理华盛顿特区周边拥挤空域的航班流量。该系统通过AI模型预测空中交通流量,并依据航班时刻、天气、机场容量和空域状况等因素识别潜在冲突。据《华尔街日报》报道,SMART最早可能于9月21日在华盛顿特区三大机场投入使用,之后将逐步推广至全美空域。有航空安全与AI治理顾问认为,先小范围启
An AI tool is set to start advising air traffic controllers on managing air traffic in the congested airspace above the Washington, DC, area. The expected launch would be the first step toward a planned nationwide rollout covering the 29 million square miles of US national airspace overseen by the Federal Aviation Administration.
The FAA describes the SMART system as using AI models to predict air traffic flows and identify potential conflicts based on operational factors like airline schedules, weather, airport capacity, and airspace conditions. US government and industry officials told The Wall Street Journal that SMART could debut for the three major airports in the Washington, DC, area as soon as Monday, September 21.
The decision to launch SMART in limited scope before going nationwide is the “right call,” said Philip Mann, principal consultant at Vector Strategic Consulting LLC, where he advises on aviation safety and AI governance. Mann previously worked at the FAA in multiple roles for 17 years.
