Abstract

A process and a device for automatically supported guidance of aircraft to a parking position permitting a required increase in safety and organized and largely centralized monitoring and control. This process automatically transmits correction instructions for direction and speed to a control of an aircraft. An aircraft located at a parking position situated within a detection area of at least one video camera is detected by the video camera. The signals supplied by the video camera are processed in an evaluation unit to determine the current position of the aircraft and the correction instructions to reach a predefined position. The signals are also processed into video sequences. The correction instructions are transmitted to the aircraft control. The video sequences are made available for integrated display on a control monitor together with additional monitoring data. The video sequences are stored on a storage medium so as to be recallable.
