LVO desktop assessments with certified data worldwide

Our Lido Desktop Assessment Service simplifies compliance for Low Visibility Operations (LVO) by removing the need for costly flight demonstrations and manual analysis. Under new EASA regulations, LVO compliance can be achieved through a data-based desktop assessment that evaluates aircraft–runway compatibility, considering runway characteristics, aircraft type, and equipment. Using Lufthansa Systems’ EASA-certified terrain, obstacle, and airport datasets, our automated process fills data gaps and delivers accurate, reliable assessments with comprehensive global runway coverage.

The analysis considers the highest terrain elevation per step in runway direction (orange points) – with up to 6m resolution (see illustration).
