The vertical aeronautics implemented by SYWORK at El Dorado International Airport can be deployed at any airport that uses the global standard for operational databases, the Airport Operational Database (AODB). “Currently there are about 3,000 airports worldwide using AODB. Many of them could benefit from this model, modernizing its information systems, creating added value and rapid return on investment. Additionally, this type of project creates an important opportunity to develop business for Oracle and its partners,” says Rodrigo Vargas Cadena, CEO of SYWORK.
