Abstract of the Disclosure An airport incursion avoidance system for detection of aircraft and other vehicles having a sensor co-located with edge lights along taxiways and runways, the sensor output being coupled to a central computer system via the airport's edge light power lines. The detection system comprises infrared sensors. The output of each sensor is fed into a microprocessor within an edge light assembly and then to a power line modem for transmission to the central computer system which includes a display at the airport tower for showing the airport and all traffic thereon. Data from each sensor along taxiways and runways is received at the central computer system and processed to provide vehicle tracking and control of all ground traffic on the airport taxiways and runways to avoid an airport incursion.
