Madrid Airport Launch Brüel & Kjær WebTrak Service
WebTrak displays actual radar flight tracks and noise from 27 Noise Monitoring Terminals located around Madrid-Barajas airport. WebTrak is freely accessible from the airport’s website and allows visitors to lodge complaints about individual flights.
It uses the same data that the airport has in its Noise and Flight Tracking System, SIRMA, and helps the airport to engage with communities over aircraft noise. WebTrak is part of the AENA’s Environmental Action Plan to reduce CO2 emissions and noise generated by operations at its airports throughout Spain and AENA expects to roll out similar services to other Spanish airports in the future.
Commenting on the press coverage, José Manuel Hesse Martin - Director of Environment for AENA said, ''We are very proud to launch WebTrak, the positive response that we’ve had from the community is demonstrating us that we are in the right way to minimize noise affection and CO2 reduction. We see WebTrak as a key part of how we manage aircraft noise from our airports in the future''.
Madrid Airport is the 46th airport to launch WebTrak and the first implementation in conjunction with the Brüel and Kjær Type 7804 Noise and Flight Tracking System – making the benefits of WebTrak available to many other airports in Europe and Asia.
