This market research study presents a detailed segmentation of the global airport information systems (AIS) market by operation (airside and terminal side), by function (AOCC and DCS), and by geography (Americas, APAC, and EMEA). Leading vendors in the market are INFORM, RESA, Rockwell Collins, Siemens, and Ultra Electronics Holdings.
Technavio’s market research analysts estimate the global AIS market to grow at a CAGR of around 6% between 2016 and 2020. The growing demand for air travel perceived by airports is a crucial driver of the market. Factors such as advanced screening systems, the emergence of real-time intelligence security, and growing investments in smart airports are propelling the demand for AIS. The Americas is expected to dominate the global AIS market, owing to surge in air traffic and improvement in the safety standards at the airports in the region.
The new market research report from Technavio provides a breakdown and analysis of the AIS segments by technology.
“One of the latest trends gaining traction in this market is the emergence of biometrics technology. In order to improve the security at the airport premises, there is an increasing demand for the widespread use of biometric authentication technology. This technology detects the potential misuse of staff and contractor ID badges to gain access to unauthorized areas within an airport. Recently, several technologies such as fingerprint, face, iris, and retina scanners for identity validation are increasing being used in some of the busiest airports in the world. Moreover, this technology is cost-effective and reliable which makes it easy to introduce at airports,” says Abhay Singh, Lead Analyst, Aerospace & Defense, Technavio Research
The airport operation control center (AOCC) segment leads the AIS market and occupies more than 57% of the market share in terms of revenue. The AOCC forms an integral part of both passenger and non-passenger software systems. It obtains information about flight movement from ATC systems and sends it to the airport operational database which, in turn, transfers the information to the flight information display system for display on screens at airport terminals. The airport authorities have made significant investments in this segment owing to the crucial function of AOCC, which will contribute to the growth of this segment over the forecast period.
The leading vendors in the global AIS market include INFORM, RESA, Rockwell Collins, Siemens, and Ultra Electronics Holdings. This market is highly competitive owing to the presence of well-diversified international and regional vendors. The vendors in the market compete in terms of on cost, product quality, reliability, and aftermarket service. The increasing presence of international vendors is hindering the growth of small domestic players as they are unable to match the standards of the global players in terms of quality and cost effectiveness.
