| description | Surface congestion management has received increased
attention worldwide, largely due to its potential to mitigate operational inefficiencies and environmental impact. Most prior
efforts have focused on demonstrations of a proposed congestion
management approach at a particular airport, and not on the adaptation of a particular approach to a range of airport operating environments. This paper illustrates the challenges
involved with adapting any class of surface congestion
management approaches to different airports. Data and case
studies from Boston Logan International Airport, New York’s
LaGuardia Airport and Philadelphia International Airport are
used to illustrate the diversity in operating environments. The
paper then proposes techniques for characterizing airport surface operations using site surveys and operational data.
Finally, it shows how these characterizations can be used for the
adaptation of a given congestion management approach to different airports. |
