Integration of Controller Scheduling Tools With a Runway Management Capability

Kurzfassung

The paper describes an integrated system comprised of the arrival, departure and surface management systems (collectively referred to as ADS-MAN) developed and under research at the Institute of Flight Guidance at the German Aerospace Center (DLR) and the Tactical Runway Configuration Management System (TRCM) that was developed and under research at the National Aeronautics and Space Administration’s (NASA) Langley Research Center. The application of this integrated system is shown with a timeline walkthrough of a single scenario with typical operations and conditions at a high density airport. The advantages using this integrated system are discussed, followed by a conclusion and next steps.
