  4. The Air Transport System Is growing steadily since the last ten years and it is expected to do so… …despite the 9/11 event, the SARS,… for the next twenty years will keep on growing Politecnico di Milano 20-21 Gennaio 2005

  5. Typical summer daily traffic 2003 Politecnico di Milano 20-21 Gennaio 2005

  6. Typical summer daily traffic 2025 Politecnico di Milano 20-21 Gennaio 2005

  7. The Air Transport System How does it work? Who are the main actors? What are the major issues of the system? How is it regulated? Politecnico di Milano 20-21 Gennaio 2005

  8. The Air Transport System • The system, at large, includes: • service providers, • airport authorities, • operators, • airspace users, • regulators, • Infrastructures and… • passengers Politecnico di Milano 20-21 Gennaio 2005

  9. The Air Transport System • The system as any other includes: • Social aspects • Economical aspects • Regulatory aspects • Air Traffic Management aspects Politecnico di Milano 20-21 Gennaio 2005

  10. The Air Transport System • Let’s focus on the • Air Traffic Management aspects for airports Politecnico di Milano 20-21 Gennaio 2005

  11. Contents • The Air Transport System • The Single European Sky Initiative • Airport R&D Activities at DG-TREN • Video • From Research to Policy • The Way Forward Politecnico di Milano 20-21 Gennaio 2005

  12. The Single European Sky Initiative • Through its Regulations on • Organisation and Use of the Airspace • Provision of Air Navigation Services • Interoperability of the European Air Traffic Management Network • will provide the frame for the Airspace Politecnico di Milano 20-21 Gennaio 2005

  13. The Single European Sky Initiative • While the new regulations on the airspace provide a more efficient system, the airports will become the real bottle-neck for aviation. Politecnico di Milano 20-21 Gennaio 2005

  14. The Single European Sky Initiative • In order to increase the actual ‘runway’ capacity in Europe, there are three options: • enlarge, build new airports • better use of existing ones, including regional airports • improve the efficiency and management at existing airports Politecnico di Milano 20-21 Gennaio 2005

  15. The Single European Sky Initiative • While • the first solution is very difficult to achieve due to costs and long-term planning, (enlarge/ build new airports) • the second is certainly being exploited whenever possible, but with certain conditions (regional airports) • the third one, if properly implemented, could be applied at any airport and, comparatively will be cost-effective and time-saving (improve efficiency & management) • So… Politecnico di Milano 20-21 Gennaio 2005

  16. What can Research do in order to help Policy to establish effective regulations for a • safe, • efficient and • environmentally friendly • Air Traffic Managementat airports? Politecnico di Milano 20-21 Gennaio 2005

  17. Contents • The Air Transport System • The Single European Sky Initiative • Airport R&D Activities at DG-TREN • Video • From Research to Policy • The Way Forward Politecnico di Milano 20-21 Gennaio 2005

  18. Is the flight ended when the aircraft has landed? Politecnico di Milano 20-21 Gennaio 2005

  19. Final Phases of Flight Politecnico di Milano 20-21 Gennaio 2005

  20. RESEARCH AREAS Approach and Landing Operations Airports Air-side and Land-side Optimisation Airport Surface Operations Politecnico di Milano 20-21 Gennaio 2005

  21. RESEARCH AREAS • Approach and Landing Operations • Integration of • Arrival • Departure • Ground Movement • planning systems Politecnico di Milano 20-21 Gennaio 2005

  22. RESEARCH AREAS Approach and Landing Operations The results obtained from these activities provide the basis for an optimised flow of traffic but requires that all the functions are well coordinated Basis for all CDM applications Politecnico di Milano 20-21 Gennaio 2005

  23. RESEARCH AREAS Airports Air-side and Land-side Optimisation Through the modelling of all the operations both by the air-side and by the land-side, we have created a user-friendly tool to assess the necessary developments and the impact of new installations Politecnico di Milano 20-21 Gennaio 2005

  24. RESEARCH AREAS Airport Surface Operations Major achievements have been obtained in this area to support improvements in airport operations and in its management Politecnico di Milano 20-21 Gennaio 2005

  25. RESEARCH AREAS Airport Surface Operations Let’s analyse the research activities in this area and let see how this could be translated into a common requirement Politecnico di Milano 20-21 Gennaio 2005

  26. Final Phases of Flight Politecnico di Milano 20-21 Gennaio 2005

  27. Let’s take a mid-size airport Politecnico di Milano 20-21 Gennaio 2005

  31. From the Control Tower On a foggy day Politecnico di Milano 20-21 Gennaio 2005

  32. What the controller do in such conditions? Pick up the R/T and call the aircraft However now the technology can provide him/her with a more positive and reliable support Politecnico di Milano 20-21 Gennaio 2005

  33. The Ground Controller Day, night, in fog or... Politecnico di Milano 20-21 Gennaio 2005
