Welcome to NAV CANADA’s OnBoard website where we feature tips and best practices that help you benefit from airspace changes. Click on a project to see what you need to know.

WTM Project

On February 9, 2012, NAV CANADA will publish significant changes to the IFR navigation infrastructure in the Toronto to Quebec City corridor as part of the Windsor-Toronto–Montreal (WTM) Airspace and Services Review.

ADS-B

ADS-B is an alternative means of providing surveillance to appropriately equipped aircraft. NAV CANADA has deployed ADS-B in airspace previously managed using only procedural air traffic control. This brings significant safety and efficiency benefits

MLAT

NAV CANADA has initiated projects to install MLAT for surface detection at major airports, as a complement to the Airport Surface Detection Equipment (ASDE) and as a component of future Advanced Surface Movement Guidance and Control Systems (A-SMGCS).
