The Federal Aviation Administration worked for the past year to produce the Roadmap. By adopting performance-based navigation standards and leveraging existing and emerging navigation capabilities, we will be able to improve airspace design and air traffic procedures. This will let us increase access, reduce delays, and improve the efficiency of the National Airspace System. The performance-based system is designed to produce the highest levels of safety and security. The system will have measurable capacity, efficiency, and environmental performance goals. Key parts of the performance-based system include communications, navigation, and surveillance. The Roadmap defines operational goals and concepts, identifies steps and milestones to achieve these goals, presents key policy and technical issues we need to address, and outlines critical decisions we need to make along the way.
