The Swedish Civil Aviation Group (Hall 1, Stand B3) is showing an interesting add-on module for the Aero NAVItracker GPS navigation system. Of interest to helicopter pilots, the SAFEAIR module was developed for pilots flying at low-level, such as air ambulance flights and power-line inspectors.
The technology uses GPS to plot the position of the aircraft and then compares this with its database of known hazards, such as masts, churches, lighthouses and other tall obstacles.
