Abstract

Current Air Traffic Control systems employ a human-centric paradigm regarding the decision making process, thus air traffic controllers are required to go through strict training. Computer simulations can leverage the training process, providing practice experience to students. This paper presents the development process of a control tower simulator for training purposes. It comprises a study of the operations, conditions and restrictions on a tower and how these elements translate into a simulation. The paper ends by presenting a simulator developed with the results of said study and discussing improvements and other uses of the simulator, such as operational procedure validation.
