Metrics Lead: Sandy Liu (AEE)
Environmental Approach • The AIRE domain demonstrations are proof of concept ATM system enhancements that have shown to offer major environmental benefits as well as improved operational efficiency. • For each AIRE domain technology/technique, statistically significant levels of fuel savings and emission and noise reductions will be quantified for the participating trans-Atlantic flights. • The cumulative measures will identify the overall potential “gate-to-gate” environmental mitigation possible for trans-Atlantic flights.
AIRE Environmental Measurement Goals (Reduce fuel burn/emissions)
Surface Domain Project Lead: Tom Prevost
NextGen Surface Objectives • Provide shared surface situational awareness • Enable airline / user surface decision support tool development • Develop FAA surface decision support tools • Promote surface collaboration between users and FAA • Develop information-sharing mechanisms between user and FAA surface decision support systems • Perform metrics collection / analysis to support business decisions on value of surface decision support • NextGen Objectives supported by AIRE demo
FY-08 AIRE Surface Objectives • Establish surface surveillance at JFK New York • Accelerate ASDE-X installation (ATO-T) • Provide surface surveillance to airport users (ATO-P) • Install ASDE-X data distribution system (ATO-P) • Augment ASDE-X to provide ramp area coverage • Perform metrics collection / analysis
Surface Benefits • Better collaboration • All participants see same picture and have the same data • Better communication mechanisms • Better asset utilization • Shorter taxi time / ground engine time • Less fuel • Fewer emissions • More efficient taxi • Fewer stops • Shorter or no delay at hold short line

Tailored Arrivals – What are they? • Tailored arrival — Key features: • Continuous descent from cruise altitude to touchdown • Tailored for traffic, environment, airspace • Controller-to-aircraft communication by data link* • Definition of flight path in both time and space (4D Flight Path) • Flight path coordinated through multiple air traffic domains, centers, sectors • Benefits: • Noise significantly decreased (near idle descent) • Emissions reduction anticipated • Flight duration reduced by several minutes • 100 to 400 kg less fuel per flight • Dramatically reduced VHF voice communication • Overall efficiency improved • Important step toward modernization of ATM End State Description: “Dynamic STAR” * If ATC does not have required data link functionality, tailored arrivals can still be achieved by using pre-negotiated set of standard arrival processes pre-stored in FMS.
Tailored Arrivals – How they workSimplified Data Flow FANS (or other integrated data link) TA trajectory flown with FMS 5 4 TA trajectory received and loaded into FMS on pilot concurrence Aircraft downlinks ETA information (at waypoints) along with other useful parameters for ATC trajectory confirmation and tuning 6 Ground automation, e.g. ATOP, ERAM, TAATS 3 CPDLC TA clearance delivered to aircraft over data link TA procedure broken off if trajectory cannot be continued for any reason 7 E.g., EDA, TAATS 1 TA clearance coordinated across ATC domains /systems 2 The key hurdles (SFO risk mitigation activities) Ground automation generates TA trajectory clearance
