Deployment Scenario Title

Next generation AMAN for a 4D environment
Deployment Scenario Description Next generation AMAN for a 4D environment: this aims to extend the arrival planning horizon, and to incorporate increasingly complex and high-density environments in which en-route sectors serve more than one airport or more than one TMA, using advanced ground support tools and automation, including with regard to airspace constraints (speed and level restrictions, wind and temperature information). The solution also involves looking at highly integrated airports within the wider context of balancing demand and capacity across the network, and in relation to sharing data between systems.
