AOP13 — Automated Assistance to Controller for Surface Movement Planning and Routing

—

Note: For this objective, there is no requirement for the use of datalink for providing clearances to the pilot or vehicle driver (e.g. D-Taxi).

NOTE FOR MILITARY AUTHORITIES: It is the responsibility of each military authority to review this Objective IN ITS ENTIRETY and address each of the SLoAs that the military authority considers RELEVANT for itself. This has to be done on top and above of the review of "MIL" SLoAs which identify actions EXCLUSIVE to military authorities.

Operating Environments: Airport

Expected Performance Benefits

Safety: Improved through increased controllers' situational awareness for all ground movements.
Capacity: Increased availability of taxiway resources and reduced total taxi time by ground movements. Improved traffic flow on the aerodrome's manoeuvring area by providing accurate taxi times to A-CDM platform for predeparture sequencing.
Operational efficiency: Reduced fuel consumption due to reduced taxi time and reduced number of stops while taxiing.
Cost efficiency: -
Environment: Reduced environmental impact by reducing fuel consumption and then CO2 emissions.
Security: -
