Want to set up your own ATM research facility? In that case you can acquire a license for various configurations of the NARSIM software suite, exactly matching your needs. An additional benefit is that a license type Professional or type Developer will make you a member of the NARSIM User Community.

NLR offers three different License Types for NARSIM and provides hardware specifications tailored to your needs or can also provide a complete simulator solution including hardware.

NARSIM PROFESSIONAL

Available for Radar and Tower
The NARSIM Professional license type includes binaries with the possibility to configure/adapt to different ATM concepts and environments. The configuration or adaptation may include:

  • Scenario adaptation (configuration changes in traffic samples, flightplans, weather, non-nominal events)
  • Configuration of simulation layout and/or size (e.g. number of working positions and allocation of pseudo-pilots, R/T, recording and logging, etc.)
  • Configuration or adaptation of airspace structure
  • Configuration of traffic autonomous flight behaviour through scripting
  • Customised Controller Working Position HMI will be delivered by NLR

The NARSIM PREPAIR tool is included in this license.
This license will provide access to the NARSIM User Community.

NARSIM DEVELOPER

Available for Radar and Tower
The NARSIM Developer license type includes everything from the type Professional license, but includes a Software Development Kit (SDK) with which the client is able to adapt parts of existing components or develop its own components that run natively in NARSIM. For these specific components, scripts will be provided enabling software development by the client itself. Available SDKs include:

  • NARSIM Server SDK
  • Controller Working Position HMI SDK

Specific for TOWER:

  • NARSIM A-SMGCS SDK
  • NARSIM EFS SDK

Other SDKs could be developed in consultation.

The NARSIM Server SDK is the most “open” SDK of all SDKs. This allows a user to build an arbitrary component and have it run in a NARSIM simulation. The NARSIM middleware interfaces (data structures, objects and dialogues) are fixed, but as long as the user keeps to this, it is possible to create new or existing functionality yourself. A prerequisite for this SDK is solid programming experience in C++.

The Controller Working Position HMI SDK is to emulate and make adjustments to any air traffic controller radar screen HMI.

The Advanced Surface Movement Guidance and Control System (A-SMGCS) tools in NARSIM include Runway Incursion Alert tool, Taxi Conflict Detection tool, Stopbar approach and Violation tool, Go-around detection tool, etc. With the A-SMGCS SDK the user can devise algorithms for the detection of Runway Incursions, Taxi conflicts, etc. and can easily build and link these to a (closed) NARSIM A-SGMCS component.

The NARSIM Electronic Flight Strips (EFS) SDK allows the user to modify the basic EFS functionality developed by NLR in NARSIM.

The NARSIM PREPAIR tool is included in this license.

This license will provide access to the NARSIM User Community.

NARSIM DEMONSTRATOR

Available for Radar and Tower
The NARSIM Demonstrator license type is a license which is used primarily by clients for whom NLR has researched an ATM concept using NARSIM at NLR’s premises. The end result of such research projects are often the reporting of results and recommendations, but may also include a NARSIM demonstrator platform. This demonstrator platform is for the client to use in demonstrations of the researched ATM concept to its stakeholders on the clients premises. It is fixed in setup and scenarios.
