Modern Parking Management

The objective of Matchbox is to provide an unobstructed flow of operations at the airport. All parties involved are given real-time access to exactly those data they require to solve their tasks. This in turn provides high flexibility and adaptability of all operating EDP systems. Under the Matchbox project Barco Orthogon AG in Stuttgart together with Fraport AG have developed a new product, Arcas (Airside Slot Capacity Assistant). The software system relieves the staff involved of their routine work thereby contributing to more efficient flight plan management via quicker preparation of data and automatic matching of the different information sources. The system allows the user to quickly and flexibly react to changing conditions without the overhead of routine flight plan data-related tasks.
