AODB - Airport Operational DataBase

General Description

Airport Operational Database(AODB) is the central database or repository for all management systems. It provides all the flight related data in real time.

AODB is the “heart” of the airport. It allows integration and control of various airport systems such as resource allocation and billing into a single framework. Its management interface is user friendly, fast and easy to use.

AODB is the destination of all operational information generated automatically, or manually by external parties. Thus, the information is gathered in one source for all airport users and third parties.

In some airport networks, AODB can be deployed with a centralized system, allowing a single infrastructure serving several airports.
