Gols for this research
• Raise the main risks involving a remote control tower;
• Propose possible solutions for each one of these risks;
• The result of this research should become a valuable input to further
studies in this area, including but not limited at extensions of this
research and an implementation of remote control tower.

Major expected challenges in this research
• Definition on which processes should be covered by this research;
• Quite few documentation about this kind of technology;
• Lack of believe from some stakeholders about this technology;
• Find out feasible solutions for the main risks encountered having in
count budget limitations and environment constraints.

How I do intend engage these challenges
• Definition on which processes should be covered by this research;
• Cover the most critical control tower processes (from safety point of
view), preferably the ones which are applied for most of the
countries.
• Quite few documentation about this kind of technology;
• Search in academic and non academic trusted sources.
• Make and document assumptions when needed.
• Lack of believe from some stakeholders about this technology;
• Work with other sources of information.
• When not possible, look for stakeholders who have a different
approach.

How I do intend engage these challenges
• Find out feasible solutions for the main risks encountered having
in count budget limitations and environment constraints.
• Keeping in mind that expensive solutions may become infeasible.
Searching for simply and reliable solutions.
• Look for solutions that can be applied for multiple environments and
its particularities, like temperature variation, weather conditions
variation, etc… Most wide range solutions are preferred.
