PR Newswire (US)
FAIRFAX, Va., Feb. 2 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Era Systems
Corporation, a subsidiary of SRA International, Inc. (NYSE:SRX),
today announced it has been awarded a contract by the City of
Phoenix to upgrade its noise and flight track monitoring solution
at Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport. The solution will
feature Era's AirScene.com NOMS (Noise and Operations Management
System) and Bruel & Kjaer's 3639E noise monitors. AirScene.com
NOMS allows the airport to correlate aircraft identification data
with flight tracks to determine specific aircraft noise levels. The
system will be used in the areas surrounding Phoenix Sky Harbor
International Airport, one of the top ten busiest airports in the
U.S. AirScene.com NOMS is an advanced, professionally hosted
integrated applications suite for managing the environmental impact
of airport operations. Airports use NOMS to measure and monitor
noise to validate noise abatement procedures and to effectively
respond to community noise concerns. In addition, the City of
Phoenix selected Era's AirScene.com Contours, an optional feature
of AirScene.com NOMS. AirScene.com Contours is the industry's most
powerful integrated noise contouring application and is compatible
with the latest version of the FAA's current integrated noise model
(INM). AirScene.com Contours also will be compatible with the
aviation environmental design tool (AEDT), the FAA's next
generation modeling tool that integrates both noise and air
quality. AirScene.com Contours can be used to produce individual
and multiple airport contours. "Phoenix's competitive award to Era
strengthens our reputation as the most widely selected and deployed
NOMS supplier in the U.S.," said Bill Colligan, SRA's vice
president and general manager, Airport Operations Solutions.
"Because of AirScene.com's advanced technology, the City of Phoenix
will be able to effectively monitor noise at multiple airports,
ranging from general aviation facilities to large commercial hubs."
