Potomac Aviation Technology Corporation

Intelligent solutions for small operations

Potomac, based in Fort Washington, Maryland, is revolutionizing access to rural and remote communities around the world. Its solutions are designed to address the unique challenges of air access to small, remote airports and airfields as well as heliports. Its flagship product, “MicroTower”, is an Advanced Air Traffic Advisory System (AATAS), a globally-linked, off-grid alternative to traditional AWOS (Automated Weather Observing System), or Remote Towers. It uses a patented Artificial Intelligence system and airports’ existing radio traffic frequencies to intelligently and adaptively interact with human pilots, even on the busiest of air traffic frequencies. It provides real-time advisories, flight planning and weather data to pilots 24/7, offering critical access and regular connectivity for far-flung communities.
