New Delhi:Delhi International Airport Limited (DIAL) on Tuesday announced that with the new state-of the-art ATC tower, thermal imaging cameras and 24×7 social media command center, it has enhanced its capabilities to manage operations during reduced visibility conditions.
"We have set up a hi-tech social media command center at AOCC (Airport Operations Command Center) to assist the passengers with up to date information. The new ATC Tower also is a boon for us to efficiently handle flight operations while the visibility is poor. We have procured thermal imaging headgears for personnel engaged in night operations on the airside," said Videsh Kumar Jaipuria, Chief Executive Officer, DIAL.
He added that we have established a social media command center with cutting-edge technology and a dedicated team to monitor the online conversation and provide resolution.
At the airside, experienced airport staff provide follow-me service to pilots to ensure seamless movement of aircraft and maintain vigil to avoid any untoward incident in dense fog situation.
