description
With air transport looking ahead to major growth in passenger numbers, what needs to be done to tackle the challenges of capacity? How can tomorrow’s industry be more agile? How might the industry best embrace the end-to-end, proactive and intuitive capabilities of so-called self-service 2.0, as well as better ways of adapting to irregular operations with predictive analytics and A-CDM? And what developments will we see in air transport’s application of tablets and mobile devices, along with wearable computing use by agents? www.sita.aero/surveys The capacity for innovation - tomorrow's airport experience: Jim Peters, Chief Technology Officer, SITA

An app is required
Beacons are opt-in. Users must have an app installed and bluetooth enabled.
An app must know to search for its beacons. Not any beacons but beacons that are known to it.
The physical world becomes digital
COMMON USE. REGISTER AIRPORT BEACONS AT…
www.developer.aero/beaconregistry
Reduce cost & complexity of deployment
Introduce standard beacon types and data definition
to encourage reuse
Provide a simple to use API to discover beacons and
get meta-data about beacons
Provide tools to airport operators and beacon owners
to visualize and track beacons
Be vendor agnostic; the service should work with beacons
from any vendor
IN COLLABORATION WITH ACI & IATA: SITA AIMS TO PROMOTE BEACON USE IN THE INDUSTRY
Technology research and incubation for the
Air Transport Industry
