Barcelona-El Prat Airport: Everything Under a Single Platform

Wonderware System Platform enables AENA to manage a large number of processes at the Barcelona-El Prat Airport in an integrated and simultaneous manner under a single platform — even with so many devices and signals with distinct technological languages.

“Wonderware Spain realized that System Platform could be greatly advantageous for airport management. System Platform has a number of features that make it appropriate for infrastructure management. 

For example, it can control up to one million inputs and outputs. Having a million inputs and outputs allow total control of an airport facility, where thousands of signals must be controlled all at once.

Secondly, another important point is redundancy. In a facility such as an airport, which has to be operational 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year, it is very important to eliminate system failures. And System Platform has redundancy built in.”

Jordi Rey, Managing Director, Wonderware Spain
