Day 3 - 16 March
Session:
Increasing Airport Capacity
12:25 - 12:55
- How to solve dynamic capacity challenges at airports
Synopsis: The AOP is based around the published schedule. Already today airlines are often unable to fly the schedule due to operational constraints (weather, passengers actions, etc.) and technical constraints. Furthermore, ANSPs are also unable to deliver the airport’s plan due to similar constraints. Consequently, resources are not utilised in the best possible way, and performance targets are missed, thus impacting overall profitability as well as customer satisfaction. Given the forecast movement numbers, airports will face more and more capacity constraints. This presentation will explore the benefits of dynamic real-time decision making by using of predictive analysis.
Audience will learn:
- How to enhance collaborative airport decision making beyond Airport-CDM => Emergence of the collaborative airport
- The factors affecting airport demand and airport capacity
- How an ANSP can contribute to meeting the airport targets
- New methods to deal with uncertainty in an uncertain environment
- How computing can be used to deliver time-critical predictions
