Performance Based Navigation. Depends on your perspective and involvement in the industry. This may be what first comes to mind. It is this and more. NextGen is different things to different people.

    3. 3 What Is NextGen? 3 Times Current Level Of: Aircraft Operations Passengers & Baggage AOA Vehicle Traffic Landside Vehicle Trips New Large Aircraft, Very Light Jets, General Aviation How Does The Airport Operator Make It Work? To the airport operator: Much higher levels of activity on the ground. Larger aircraft in both weight and wing span. Larger numbers of smaller jets. Greater number of aircraft, people, baggage, and equipment. Its more of everything that an airport needs to operate. Support equipment, maintenance, cargo. Safe and Secure EnvironmentTo the airport operator: Much higher levels of activity on the ground. Larger aircraft in both weight and wing span. Larger numbers of smaller jets.

    4. 4 Airport Operations- Reevaluation Airport Facility Development Airfield & Terminal Capacity Passenger Flow Landside Capacity Airport Resource Management Severe Weather Operations AOA Surface Operations Think outside the box. NextGen challenges our way of thinking. Reevaluate operations from top to bottom. On the airfield- movement and non-movement areas, in and around the terminal/concourses, on the landside. Must think about new ways of managing assets.Think outside the box. NextGen challenges our way of thinking. Reevaluate operations from top to bottom.

    5. 5 Balanced Wheel of Improvement Each spoke must be as strong as the next or the system will be constrained. NextGen forces airport owners to evaluate all aspects of infrastructure in a holistic manner. Airport Planners are evaluating these elements of the system today in anticipation of future demand because when the demand for travel grows to NextGen levels infrastructure must be in place.Each spoke must be as strong as the next or the system will be constrained.

    6. 6 Dulles At A Glance Today 11,800 Acres 365,000 Operations And 24M Pax 143 Contact Gates 2.5 Million Sq. Ft. Terminal/Concourse Area Master Plan 11,800 Acres 900,000+ Operations And 60M+ Pax 300+ Contact Gates 5 Million+ Sq. Ft. Terminal/Concourse Area Dulles is an OEP airport. The airport serves O/D passengers from VA/MD/DC/WV with a good percentage going to or coming from northern va. / dc/ bordering areas of MD. UAL is the dominant signatory carrier. By the numbers, Dulles falls just short of 3X growth. Master plan forecasts did not assume NextGen benefits. Peak 2005: 490,000 Ops and 27M Pax Master Plan Forecast constrained by Airfield configuration; Delays reach 8 minutes / op 75/25 split domestic/international passengers today. 10% ops are international today. What assumptions for aircraft separation were assumed in HNTB Forecast? Dulles is an OEP airport.

    7. 7 In 2000 began a multi-year multi-billion dollar program to accommodate future activity levels. These improvements become the cornerstone of NextGen at IAD. ATCT: 325 High State of the Art; ASDE-X, ASR-9, Runway/Crossfield Taxiways/Pad B: 9400 long runway separated by 4300. Trips during VFR. Waiting on high resolution and update monitors and final monitoring aid 12/30 Hold Pad Expansion: Accommodate larger fleet of aircraft, provide by pass flow. 19L Hold Pad Realignment: Provide Group-V bypass capability T/L F: Provide Cross-field flow Terminal Elements: Main Terminal Expansion (including baggage handling); Expanded ticketing kiosks, circulation area, baggage sortation, B Concourse Expansion; 16 Gate Addition Passenger Conveyance: APM System: More efficiently move passengers to/from terminal and concourses. Wait time 2 minutes. Travel time 70 seconds. Walkback Tunnel In 2000 began a multi-year multi-billion dollar program to accommodate future activity levels.

    9. 9 Airport Operators Expectations From NextGen NextGen Technology CDTI / ADS-B Implementation of PBN, RNAV/RNP Wake Vortex Based Spacing What IAD expects to gain from NextGen: Reduce R/W separations to 2500 will enable some additional opportunities at IAD. Reduce entrail separation in the terminal area to <1 mi if wake vortex allows will increase capacity considerably possibly as much as 20%. These elements of NextGen bring the biggest relief to constraints on airfield capacity.

    10. 10 Airport Operators Expectations From NextGen NextGen Technology Integrated Arrival/Departure and Surface Traffic Flow Management ASDE-X, R/W Status Lights Cooperative Surveillance System (for AOA Vehicles) Net-Centric Services Real time info is distributed among ANSP, flight operators, ATCT-Ground, ramp control, GSE operators. Incorporating predictive algorithms. Reduce taxiway/taxilane conflicts in and out of the terminal area. Reduce ground and gate holds. Enhanced Operations during weather events (fog, snow, etc). Deicing times are scheduled with a departure time. Challenge: Weaving all the information from various stakeholders together in forum that can be distributed to the same.Real time info is distributed among ANSP, flight operators, ATCT-Ground, ramp control, GSE operators.

    11. 11 Airport Operators Expectations From NextGen NextGen Technology Shared Situational Awareness Passenger Baggage: Off-Airport Processing Flows through terminal / concourse are managed through net-centric ops. If lines back up at security, relief is provided. Baggage is checked at hotels / off-airport reducing need to carry. Passenger and baggage itinerary are tracked via advanced technology.Flows through terminal / concourse are managed through net-centric ops. If lines back up at security, relief is provided.

    12. 12 Airport Operators Expectations From NextGen NextGen Technology Intermodal Transport Dulles is extending the metro rail to the airport. Increased use of Trains/Buses reduces road congestion, more predictable travel times. Information on all modes of transport is consolidated so traveller can make more informed decision on choice of travel. Must be included in a regional ground transportation system plan for any airport near a large CBD. Challenges: Element that may be outside the physical boundaries of most airports but an integral part of capacity and NextGen. Multi-jurisdictional consensus needed. Cost are expensive.Dulles is extending the metro rail to the airport. Increased use of Trains/Buses reduces road congestion, more predictable travel times.
