Searidge Technologies has announced the successful implementation of Spain\u2019s first fully operational digital control tower at Vigo Airport.<\/p>\n

This development, achieved in partnership with Skyway, marks a significant advancement in the country\u2019s air traffic management capabilities. Having received certification from Spanish aviation regulators, the system is now actively providing air traffic control services.<\/p>\n

The new operations centre is located in a building adjacent to Vigo Airport and features a high-resolution, 360\u00b0 real-time visual display.<\/p>\n

Utilising a network of fixed and mobile high-definition cameras and real-time sensor data, this technology replaces traditional views, enhancing situational awareness and visibility for air traffic controllers. The objective is to improve operational safety and overall efficiency.<\/p>\n

Searidge Technologies CEO Moodie Cheikh said: \u201cWe\u2019re proud to support Aena in achieving this important milestone.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe operational launch at Vigo marks a first for Spain and underscores Europe\u2019s leadership in digital tower innovation. We look forward to continuing our collaboration as Aena advances its strategy to digitise and future-proof airport operations across the country.\u201d<\/p>\n

Operations will initially take place during periods of low air traffic, with conventional tower controllers available as backup. This phased introduction aims to ensure a smooth transition while maintaining rigorous safety standards.<\/p>\n

By adopting digital tower technology, Vigo Airport aligns itself with other leading global airports such as Heathrow, Changi, and Dubai.<\/p>\n

In November, Searidge Technologies revealed the operational commencement of its Virtual Tower at Hamad International Airport (HIA) since February 2025. This marks the first instance of a large-scale digital tower system certified by safety regulators in the Middle East, further highlighting innovations in aviation infrastructure.<\/p>\n
