Surface Area Moving Map

The Astronautics Surface Area Moving Map (SAMM) is an innovative software application that allows the pilot to understand the position of the aircraft on the airport surface and, with the support of Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B) data from a surveillance processor, it makes the pilot aware of the surrounding traffic.
