Abstract

Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for an audio monitoring and event-conflict signaling system. An embodiment operates by receiving airport audio communication originating from an airport control tower (ATCT) of an airport with one or more runways or a flight deck of an aircraft. The system determines one or more keywords corresponding to a runway event affecting operations of a particular runway of the airport. The system detects, within the airport audio communication, a conflict comprising a correspondence between the airport audio communication and one or more of the keywords, and notifies the ACT of the conflict.
