Newark Liberty International Airport Contracts for PASSUR Suite of Operations Tools

GREENWICH, Conn., Dec. 21 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Megadata Corporation (OTC Bulletin Board: MDTA) announced today that Newark Liberty International Airport, operated by the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, has purchased subscriptions to PASSUR(R) inSight(TM) and Portal(TM) software solutions for their operations centers. These PASSUR solutions help airports achieve cost savings and operational efficiencies through instant communications, coordination and consistent information, for greater overall performance.

"Newark Liberty International came to us with the challenge of consolidating all their visual flight following, real-time airspace analysis, and operational situational awareness onto one platform," said Jim Barry, Megadata's president and CEO. "We're pleased they chose PASSUR to help manage one of the most complex and critical pieces of the nation's aviation infrastructure."

PASSUR Portal is an integral part of the "PASSUR 3C" program, providing a live snapshot of vital operational information on a "web dashboard" which combines multiple information sets derived from the one-of-a-kind PASSUR database, and tools for coordination, communication and consistent information sharing among all users.

PASSUR inSight is the only web-based flight following program that combines national en route flight tracking with precision, terminal-area tracking from the PASSUR network of radar, along with a next-generation graphics engine for real-motion tracking and aircraft movement, and the renowned PASSUR ETA.
