Automatic Dependent Surveillance (ADS) is a form of avionics technology used to track aircraft in flight. It is a cooperative surveillance system, meaning that the aircraft transmits its position and other data to a ground station, which then relays the information to other aircraft and air traffic control. ADS is used to provide air traffic controllers with real-time information on the location, altitude, speed, and heading of aircraft, allowing them to better manage air traffic. ADS also allows aircraft to be tracked more accurately, reducing the risk of mid-air collisions. ADS is becoming increasingly popular in the aviation industry, as it provides a more efficient and cost-effective way to monitor air traffic. It is also being used to improve safety, as it allows aircraft to be tracked more accurately and quickly. Some companies in the Automatic Dependent Surveillance market include Honeywell, Rockwell Collins, Thales, Garmin, and Universal Avionics. Show Less Read more
