This report presents the results of our review of the Federal Aviation Administrations (FAA) Airport Surface Detection Equipment-Model X (ASDE-X) program. FAA is developing ASDE-X to aid air traffic controllers in preventing ground collisions on the airport surface and reducing runway incursions. FAA also intended for ASDE-X to improve airport safety by operating in all-weather conditions, especially during low-visibility conditionssuch as fog, rain, and snowwhen controllers cannot see aircraft or vehicles as they move about the airport surface.
