Surface Awareness Initiative Display (SAID)

Section titled “Surface Awareness Initiative Display (SAID)”

BNA uses a SAID (not ASDE) for surface situational awareness. Key differences from MEM’s ASDE:

  • Incorrect ADS-B callsigns will display improperly.
  • CRC simulates the SAID with near-identical appearance to the ASDE (same contractor).
