Whether it's the business executive in flight to a convention, or a cargo ship negotiating Egypt's Suez Canal, advanced systems and technology from Lockheed Martin are at work to assure their safe passage. And safe arrival.
Lockheed Martin serves governments to provide transportation management solutions for air, marine and land traffic in the United States, Europe and Asia. The goal: To assure the safe and efficient transport of people and commerce at an economically competitive cost.
The experience, capabilities and resources of Lockheed Martin compete aggressively in a transportation market that values original thinkers. And hard work. From "clean sheets of paper" we shape creative solutions that advance our customer's mission and add exceptional value to their enterprise.
As a lead systems integrator, Lockheed Martin is recognized worldwide for adding to the safety and security of today's transportation systems. Our innovations include the adaptation of submarine technology for positive train control, and the application of advanced sensor technology to navigate vessels through tricky waterways.
Wherever the skies are busiest, where leadership is needed for maritime safety, and where technology and innovation can improve service to customers, you'll find Lockheed Martin.
Lockheed Martin specializes in these major areas:
Air Traffic Control
Every day across the globe, 60 percent of the world's commercial air traffic is monitored and controlled by Lockheed Martin air traffic control systems. Systems that are powerful, advanced and completely reliable. Lockheed Martin knows how to work with governments worldwide in a way that's fiscally sound, and we are accountable for generating strong results.
We provide the experience, technology and financing to bring the most modern and efficient operations to our air traffic customers in the United States and worldwide. To meet tomorrow's growth in global travel, we are developing next-generation systems today to modernize airspace management. Our systems offer air traffic controllers flexible routing, collaborative decision-making, conflict resolution tools, and more accurate and timely surveillance information, all of which leads to safer skies.
From the runway to the tower and from takeoff to touchdown, our systems carry passengers safely through any journey, helping to bring the world closer together.
Airport Management
Lockheed Martin provides tools for ground surveillance monitoring, coordination between airport service personnel and the air navigation, and management of aircraft in the taxiways and runways. Our hub and ramp management system integrates surveillance data, collaborative decision making tools and airline legacy systems into a single automated system. The system helps airline operations managers and air traffic controllers improve the efficiency of their operations. Our security systems protect the entire aviation infrastructure.
Lockheed Martin offers:
- Systems and services for airline operation centers
- Command and control communications centers
- Airport security systems
- Material and baggage handling solutions
- Centralized management information systems, and
- Flight and weather information decision support systems
 Aviation Management
Our automated systems can predict potential aircraft conflicts in advance. The advanced tools enable controllers to resolve conflicts and manage air traffic more efficiently. These same systems offer pilots increased flexibility in air routes, saving fuel while maintaining high levels of safety. Our gate-to-gate capabilities span:
- Air traffic control automation
- En-route, oceanic and terminal air traffic management
- Airport management and security systems, and
- Decision support tools for managing air flight operations
We offer unrivaled global depth and breadth in developing, upgrading and maintaining aviation management systems. Systems that make safe, on-time air travel possible.
Navigation
With 40 years of air traffic management experience, Lockheed Martin has unparalleled expertise in developing sophisticated systems to maximize the full scope of airspace management. Lockheed Martin uses this knowledge to deliver flight navigation capability.
Working with strategic partners, we offer satellite-based navigation for aviation as part of our unified communications, navigation and surveillance solutions. Our navigation and landing system provides precision guidance to aircraft at thousands of airports and airstrips where there is currently no precision landing capability. Our systems allow aircraft to operate in closer proximity and use more dynamic routes, allowing decreased fuel consumption and increased airspace utilization.
Vessel Traffic Management
Lockheed Martin leads the way in providing products and systems to nations, navies and maritime authorities to help them monitor and protect their assets, waterways, ports and harbors, shores, coasts and deep waters.
Maritime borders must be protected from illegal immigration, drug traffic and environmental hazards. Fisheries and other natural resources are in danger of depletion. Cargo and passenger ships need to get to their intended destination safely and on schedule. Ships in distress need to be quickly found and assisted. Commercial and naval ports need protection from terrorist attack.
Combining years of experience in advanced sensor technology and platforms, and systems integration, we are providing reliable and cost-effective solutions to better manage vessel traffic, monitor ports and coastlines, protect people and naval, sea- and shore-based assets. Supported missions include:
- Coastal and maritime security and surveillance
- Port and waterway safety and surveillance
- Search-and-rescue operations
- Vessel traffic management
