Disclosed are a method and an apparatus for pre-identifying a model of an aircraft to which a passenger bridge is to be connected and for setting the passenger bridge to a predetermined position in dependence upon the identification. The system uses an imager to capture an image of the aircraft as it approaches the bridge. A local processor of the bridge extracts features for comparison to template data stored locally in a database for a plurality of possible aircraft models. In dependence upon a result of the comparison, a model of the aircraft is identified absent the local processor receiving additional information from an external information source. The local processor retrieves other data from the database for moving the passenger bridge to a predetermined position for the identified model of aircraft.
