Features and Functionalities - PDC AirportSuite

What is delivered with PDC AODB

Transform fragmented airport information into one connected operational picture. PDC AODB consolidates flight schedules, aircraft movements, passenger data, resources, and operational events into a single platform, ensuring every stakeholder is working from accurate, real-time information.

Stay in control of airport operations as they happen. Monitor arrivals, departures, delays, turnaround milestones, and operational status updates through a live operational dashboard designed to support faster decision-making and improved situational awareness. 

Maximize the utilization of airport assets through intelligent management of stands, gates, baggage facilities, check-in counters, security checkpoints, and handling resources. Reduce bottlenecks, improve operational efficiency, and make better use of available capacity.

Optimize aircraft parking and passenger flow with powerful stand and gate management capabilities. Visual allocation tools help operations teams identify conflicts, improve turnaround efficiency, and make the most of available apron and terminal resources.    

Manage seasonal schedules, ad-hoc flights, and complex multi-leg operations from a single solution. PDC AODB enables airports to maintain accurate schedules, respond quickly to operational changes, and keep all stakeholders aligned throughout the planning cycle.

Connect your entire airport ecosystem through industry-standard messaging and system integration capabilities. PDC AODB exchanges data with airlines, airport systems, billing platforms, operational applications, and IATA-based interfaces to create a streamlined operational environment.

Gain valuable insight into passenger flows, transfer traffic, aircraft loads, cargo, baggage, and special assistance requirements. By centralizing operational data, airports can make better planning decisions and continuously improve the passenger experience.

Coordinate airside activities with greater precision. From flight movements and runway usage to de-icing, handling services, turnaround milestones, and ATC-related information, PDC AODB helps keep operations running safely and efficiently from touchdown to takeoff.

Turn operational activity into reliable revenue. PDC AODB captures the operational data required for airport charging, handling services, billing calculations, and ERP integration, helping airports improve invoicing accuracy while reducing manual effort.  

Leverage operational data to drive continuous improvement. Generate traffic statistics, passenger reports, operational KPIs, schedule analyses, and regulatory reporting from a single platform, enabling data-driven decisions across the airport organization.

What is delivered with PDC PAS

Deliver accurate passenger announcements automatically based on real-time operational events from the Airport Operational Database (AODB). PAS eliminates manual intervention while ensuring passengers receive timely information about boarding, arrivals, baggage reclaim, and other flight-related events. 

PAS integrates directly with the Airport Operational Database, enabling announcements to be triggered by live flight and operational data. This ensures passenger messaging remains synchronized with airport operations and other AirportSuite modules. 

Create and manage announcements in multiple languages to support diverse passenger groups. Each language can be configured with its own voice settings and playback priority, helping airports provide a consistent international passenger experience. 

Automatically include flight-specific information such as airline, flight number, destination, baggage belt, and operational times in announcements. PAS replaces predefined variables with real-time data at the moment of playback, ensuring announcements are always up to date. 

Ensure consistent and correct pronunciation of airline names, airport names, destinations, and operational terms. PAS supports configurable pronunciation rules and conversion tables, improving announcement quality across multiple languages and voices. 

Configure announcements to play automatically when operational conditions are met. Examples include boarding commencement, final call notifications, gate changes, and baggage reclaim events, ensuring important passenger information is delivered exactly when required. 

Create time-based announcements that run automatically at predefined intervals. This functionality is ideal for security reminders, safety information, operational messages, and airport-wide communications throughout the day. 

Target announcements to specific airport zones such as departure areas, boarding gates, security checkpoints, or baggage reclaim halls. PAS can also distribute announcements to sub-zones, ensuring the right passengers hear the right message at the right location. 

Enable airport staff to instantly broadcast operational messages that are not tied to predefined events or schedules. Quick Announcements allow operators to enter dynamic information such as passenger names, flights, and gate numbers before immediate playback. 

Maintain full visibility of all announcement activity through comprehensive logging and monitoring tools. PAS records announcement details including timestamp, zone, language, trigger source, and message content, providing complete traceability and operational oversight
