Norway is a country defined by vast distances and challenging topography. Norwegian business is internationally focused and relies on aviation. Aviation is crucial for housing, value creation, travel, the health system, education, sports and culture.

Two out of three Norwegians have access to an airport within one hour of travel time. In Western Norway and Northern Norway, two out of three people can reach their nearest airport within half an hour. Aviation is crucial for regional growth and for making regional centers accessible. It also plays a key role in Norway's decentralized education system. Aviation also plays a key role in Norway's health sector: more than 30,000 ambulance trips are carried out by air each year. The hospital structure in Northern Norway is largely based on the frequency of air transport. Aviation is also an important sector for tourism, especially in Northern Norway. Remote Towers supports these sectors through a safe, stable and efficient tower service.

Linda Salte (Technical Lead) and Anne Birgitte Sætrum (Operational Lead) are both working on the development of the solution, through the AVINOR Remote Towers Program. They will talk a little about the innovation/paradigm shift in connection with the introduction of Remote Towers in Norwegian airspace.
