Indra has successfully completed the implementation the Chengdu and Xian air control centres in China that manage the air traffic in the upper airspace of more than eight regions in the country for a total of 4.2 million square kilometres, or more than eight times the size of Spain. The company has equipped the Shuang Liu international airport, one of the most important in China, with its state-of-the-art technology for air traffic management.

Chengdu is one of Asia's largest air control centres. At this location, the Air Traffic Management Bureau South West (ATMB SW), which reports to the Civil Aviation Administration of China (CAAC), uses Indra technology to control the upper airspace of five regions in China: Yunnan, Tibet, Chongqing, Guizhou and Sichuan.

This new control centre has more than 400 air controllers who are responsible for an area of 2.3 million square kilometres. To manage this space effectively, Indra has implemented an advanced 4D trajectory flight management system (3 dimensions + time), as well as communication and route conflict prediction systems. With approximately 70 air controller positions, Chengdu manages the traffic of 17 international routes and about 30 domestic routes.
