The overall objective of the action is to implement an Advanced Surface Movement Guidance and Control System (A-SMGCS) at Zagreb International Airport. As current tower technology at Zagreb Airport is not sufficient, the action will provide a proper technological solution for traffic management in order to follow planned traffic growth in a safe and efficient way.

Implementation of A-SMGCS aims at providing surveillance, guidance and control of aircraft and vehicles on the airport manoeuvring area and at maintaining the declared surface movement rate under all weather conditions. The action will contribute to a better capacity and throughput, a better flight efficiency and greater environmental benefits, increased safety as well as cost effectiveness.
