Xovis has deployed a digital twin, in the form of its Passenger Flow Management System (PFMS), at a busy security checkpoint at Vancouver International Airport (YVR) in Canada.

As a solution that could be installed with minimal disruptions to ongoing operations in the terminal, the PFMS was successfully implemented in a matter of months.

“Our Digital Twin has transformed the way YVR operates and requires the highest quality, objective data to support our proactive decision-making processes,” said Tamara Vrooman, President & CEO at Vancouver International Airport. “The system provided to us by Xovis allows us to capture real-time information at critical passenger processing points, as well as providing historical data which supports our future capacity planning.”

Xovis’ one-stop-shop approach to delivering a world-class solutions and technical support for all project phases were behind its appointment at YVR. In excess of 110 airports, including multiple terminals in Canada already use the Xovis PFMS to optimise operations, manage costs and enhance the passenger experience.

“Data-based simulations are nothing short of revolutionary for many industries and businesses. And as more companies look to harness the awesome potential of digital twins, the focus necessarily shifts to the quality of the underlying data,” concluded Florian Eggenschwiler, Xovis Chief Product Officer, as he underlined that Xovis has already deployed its PFMS to more than 110 airports, including multiple terminals in Canada.
