Airport Modeling

• Airside Aircraft Movements

Assess and improve airport airside capacity by modeling aircraft parking/gate allocation, taxi flow control, runway entry selection, sequencing and crossing, turn-around management, de-icing, DMAN.

• Airside Vehicle Movements

Assess and improve airport airside capacity by modeling ground service vehicle movements (tugs, buses, refueling trucks, baggage tractor, cargo loader, …) including rule-based allocation per flight, parking location, speed control, service duration and optimization.

• Terminal Passengers Movements

Assess and improve airport terminal capacity by modeling passenger movements. Includes rule-based modeling of checkin, passport control, security control, immigration, baggage claim, retail, waiting area, boarding processes with custom queue path and flow control.

• Runway Capacity Analysis

Includes evaluation of existing and future runway system capacity with optimized traffic sequences, taking into account demand and constraints such as separations, runway usage and Level of Service.

Airspace Modeling

• En-route Traffic & ATC

Assess and improve en-route airspace capacity by modeling en-route traffic and ATC procedures complexity. Includes rule-based modeling of controller workload (events and monitoring), conflict detection & resolution, letter of agreement, tactical re-routing and level/speed control, sector opening scheme etc.

• Airport TMA/TRACON

Assess and improve airport terminal airspace capacity by modeling TMA/TRACON ATC procedures as well as aircraft movements and sequencing. Includes modeling of controller workload (events and monitoring), runway system sequencing, vectoring/speed/holding based flow control etc.

• Network/ATFM and 4D TBOs

Assess and improve network and flow management procedures by modeling 4D Trajectory Based Operations (4D TBOs). Includes modeling of Demand Capacity Balancing (DCB) measures (AMAN, time constraint or distance based point-in-space metering, re-routing, level capping, etc).
