Apr 23, 2007 (newstodate): Riga Airport has decided to continue its cooperation with the Era Corporation.
Under a contract Era will provide a wide area multilateration solution for Riga International Airport, utilising Era's MSS sensors, which will be strategically placed to provide optimal surveillance coverage.
Era's solution will provide surveillance out to a distance of at least 80 nautical miles from the airport, securing higher accuracy, greater update rates, better coverage and improved reliability when compared to conventional radar, and at a much lower initial cost and with lower annual maintenance costs.
In 2005, the airport selected Era to provide ground surveillance, as well as vehicle tracking, for the airport surface.
