Xovis Selected To Manage Passenger Flow At San Diego’s New Terminal 1
The $3.8 billion New T1 project—the largest in SAN’s history— will deliver a modern 30-gate terminal upon completion designed for traveler comfort, security, and sustainability. As part of this transformation, Xovis’ solution now provides the airport with real-time insights into passenger movements, enabling smoother operations at multiple terminal touchpoints.
The surge in global air travel is creating capacity challenges for airports worldwide—a trend projected to continue over the next decade. Xovis’ PFMS helps ease these constraints by combining vision-based sensor technology with advanced analytics to measure and predict passenger flows across key touchpoints such as security, check-in, gates, e-ticketing areas, restrooms, and more.
“San Diego International Airport’s revitalization is not just about building a bigger terminal—it’s about building a smarter one,” said Christian Studer, CEO of Xovis. “By putting data at the core of operations, we empower SAN to manage capacity dynamically, reduce wait times, and ensure travelers enjoy a seamless journey through the new Terminal 1.”
As SAN prepares to welcome millions of travelers annually through its new terminal, Xovis is proud to support the airport’s mission to combine world-class infrastructure with world-class passenger experiences.
