From data to safe and efficient air traffic

LVNL

Decision Support Tool (DST)

In the fast-paced world of air traffic control, split-second decisions are critical for keeping the skies safe. Our team was tasked with improving the decision-making process for air traffic management at LVNL in the Netherlands. Through research, strategic design and a user-focused approach, we transformed this complex task into a smoother, more efficient experience, boosting safety and operational efficiency. A world’s first!

Fasten your seatbelts

We dove into the world of air traffic control, working closely with LVNL controllers to understand their workflows, challenges and needs. This empathy-driven approach became the backbone of our design decisions.

User-Centric Design

Armed with insights, we created an intuitive UX design that aligned with the controllers’ mental models, allowing them to quickly understand critical information. We simplified complex data visualizations and highlighted key elements to ensure swift, clear decision-making.

AI optimization

We leveraged cutting-edge technologies to ensure the application's real-time capabilities. Providing controllers with live simulation updates and immediate responses to their actions.

Iterative road to success

Our design went through extensive testing with real LVNL air traffic controllers to ensure it fit perfectly with their decision-making process. Continuous feedback loops were key in refining the design, resulting in a solution that felt custom-made for their needs.
