Upper Airspace Skill-Level Index for Minimum Competency Level Prediction

Kurzfassung

The effective management of airspace is critical to maintaining the safety and efficiency of air traffic operations. A key component of this management is the ability to anticipate the skill levels required by air traffic controllers (ATCO) to operate in specific sectors under varying traffic conditions. Building on the concept of the Upper Airspace Skill-Level Index (UASLI), which uses measurable parameters to assess a controller’s work experiences, this document presents a predictive framework designed to forecast the expected skill level index necessary for managing air traffic in a given sector at a specific time.
