Project Overview
FLYSAFE has been designed on the basis of six driving factors:
1. The beginning of the project was dedicated to the joint review, by the team, of the results of past and on-going investigation of accidents and incidents, with the identification of all contributing causes. Among these causes the team selected elements that can be suppressed with innovative Next Generation Integrated Surveillance Systems (NG ISS), thus reducing the occurrence of accidents and incidents.
The results of this analysis will then feed the evaluation tasks with scenarios that will be used to assess new versus state-of-the-art technologies.

FLYSAFE overall concept
2.
There are three main types of hazards sources for aviation: adverse
atmospheric conditions, traffic and terrain. This has led to the
creation of three branches in the FLYSAFE work breakdown structure
(WBS): one per hazard category, interacting with the others, and a
fourth branch dedicated to the integration of their outputs into the
Next Generation Integrated Surveillance System (NG ISS) itself.
