Air traffic control has historically depended on navigational aids and radars, both located on the ground, for navigation and traffic monitoring, respectively. Recent developments in geographical positioning using satellites has allowed the development of flight procedures that do not require ground navigational aids. However, air traffic control still relies mostly on radars. To date, pilots receive little to no information on other traffic in their surrounding: that information is made available to a centralized air traffic control unit, which then uses it to advise and guide pilots in order to maintain a safe distance between aircraft.

空中交通管制在历史上一直依赖于位于地面的导航设备和雷达，分别用于导航和交通监控。利用卫星进行地理定位的最新发展使得能够制定不需要地面导航辅助设备的飞行程序。然而，空中交通管制仍然主要依赖雷达。到目前为止，飞行员几乎没有收到周围其他交通的信息：这些信息被提供给一个集中的空中交通管制单位，然后使用它来建议和指导飞行员，以保持飞机之间的安全距离。
