The User Request Evaluation Tool (URET), a conflict-detection tool that automatically detects and advises air traffic controllers of predicted conflicts between aircraft or between aircraft and special activity in airspace within the National Airspace System, is now operating at all 20 FAA en route centers.

The strategic planning tool allows controllers to create alternative, conflict-free routings and to efficiently manage changing air traffic or weather conditions. With the help of URET, controllers can take a more strategic approach to assigning new routes by identifying conflicts in the immediate area and adjoining airspace. This strategic approach to assigning new routes helps reduce the number of changes required and reduces controller workload.
