GMR Airports has introduced an AI-powered digital twin platform at Rajiv Gandhi International Airport in Hyderabad, Telangana, India.
This platform, along with the newly unveiled next-generation Airport Predictive Operation Centre (APOC), is expected to transform the management and functionality of airport systems.
The digital twin platform combines airside, landside, and terminal operations into a cohesive system, leveraging real-time data to enhance decision-making, reduce disruptions, and maintain smooth operations.
The platform will gradually become the standard operating model at all airports operated by GMR.
Some of the features of the platform include intelligent crowd management, flow and queue analytics, passenger experience analytics, real-time insights, and behaviour analytics.
