Songshan Airport in Taiwan Selecting Qsan

Company biography
Before the opening of Taoyuan International Airport in 1979, Songshan Airport was the primary civilian airport in Taiwan.

However, as Taipei City expanded, it became difficult to expand the airport. After the completion of Taoyuan International Airport, international scheduled flights were suspended until 2008, when it was re-opened and positioned as a business airport for the capital. Due to factors such as air convection in the afternoon during the summer and frequent typhoons hitting Taiwan, flights are often affected during takeoff and landing. After the opening of the Taipei Metro Neihu Line in 2009, Songshan Airport became the second civilian airport in Taiwan with an external metro system service, following Kaohsiung International Airport.

In 2016, Songshan Airport served a total of 6.142 million passengers, ranking 3rd in Taiwan, after Taoyuan International Airport and Kaohsiung International Airport. This information is cited from Wikipedia.

Challenge
Taipei Songshan Airport is one of the busiest domestic airports in Taiwan, with a large number of passengers and baggage to handle every day. In such a highly busy environment, the airport needs a reliable monitoring system to ensure safety and smooth operations.
