TRB Aviation Group Committees Comments: INTERGOVERNMENTAL RELATIONS IN AVIATION CMTE - Having all aviation and local interests understanding the importance of issues relevant to each player should provide for a greater bala
3、nce of airport viability. However, if the scope of the statement is not improved by reflecting exactly what the proposed research will involve and providing a clear description of the types of airports this guidebook will focus on, or how it will be able to address the problems in generic ways for a
4、ll airports, the committee will not recommend the problem statement for funding. AVIATION SYSTEM PLANNING CMTE - This problem statement is too general in its explanation of the problem, and it lacks clarity regarding the proposed research and expected result. Although there may be a lack of guidance
5、 on the topic, it doesnt make a compelling case for the reason that the project should be undertaken by ACRP when the market place is providing new solutions to our information sharing needs on a daily basis. Not recommended for funding. AIRPORT TERMINALS AND GROUND ACCESS CMTE - Not recommended for

RESEARCH PROBLEMT STATEMENT To meet ever-expanding demands for passenger related information, there is a growing trend amo
9、ng airports for the sharing of operational information between its community stakeholders. Further evidence is seen in the current draft of the ACI Airport Community Recommended Information Services (ACRIS) Recommend Practice (RP): “There is a growing requirement among members of the airport communi
10、ty (airport authorities, airlines, security authorities, concessionaires, etc) to share flight, baggage, and passenger processing information.” This requirement is being driven by a rapidly developing new model of airport operations which is based on the optimization of: Shared facilities Self-servi
11、ce New technology and automation Changes in passenger traffic flows (within and away from airport facility) The increase demands for sharing of information dictates improved methods of automation and technology. The vendor community is responding to these new requirements through automated tools, de
12、signed to collect, analyze, and share information. Stated benefits to airport operations of improved automated methods include: Ability to plan, monitor, and adapt quickly and seamlessly to real-time air traffic Quicker turn-around time in receipt of flight status and weather pattern information Imp
13、roved management congested airports and passengers with high service level expectations Ability to create a personalized view of air traffic important to that airport operations Proactive measures for irregular operations. Similar benefits can be recognized for airlines, security authorities, and ba
14、sically all other members of the airport community. With the proliferation of information, comes the challenge of sharing this information in a standardized and service oriented way. It is clear that standard methods are needed for the effective sharing and interoperable use of information. At prese
15、nt, no single resource document summarizes the available strategies, opportunities, and related technologies, or offers airports useful guidance on how or when to implement a particular strategy. Research is needed to assist the airport community in determining the most appropriate methods of inform
16、ation sharing strategies and technologies for their airports. If successfully completed, the airport community stands to improve operational efficiencies and reduce costs. III. OBJECTIVE The objective of this research is to develop a guidebook of recommended practices that enable airport authorities
17、, airlines, and other stakeholders the means to exchange and process operational information. It will identify, process, and report on various airport operational information sharing strategies and opportunities. This guidebook shall provide useful information and resources for the airport community
18、 members as they seek to meet the information sharing needs of airport operations. This guidebook will examine new technologies and processes being explored and used at key airports throughout North America and other key locations. This guidebook will also examine the efforts of the ACI and other av
19、iation associations seeking to provide guidance in these areas. IV. RESEARCH PROPOSED A lack of consistent, accurate and timely information results from a lack of applied technology and overall standardized industry practices to gather and process information. Several airports recognize this problem
20、 and are actively seeking solutions. The project should focus its attentions on these airport locations to study the complex operational requirements being addressed, and the potential benefits behind effective information sharing. Along with key airports, the ACI and vendor community are also intro
21、ducing key initiatives and new technologies. ACI is currently approaching the airline community through IATA for further collaboration. This project should work with both entities in collaborating on the final guidebook. V. ESTIMATE OF THE PROBLEM FUNDING AND RESEARCH PERIOD Recommended Funding: Wit
22、h the anticipated research approach, standard project funding in the range of $300,000 to $500,000 is recommended. Research Period: 9 months is recommended, which includes the 3 months for review and revision of a draft final report. VI. URGENCY AND PAYOFF POTENTIAL It is recommended that this proje
23、ct be initiated early in the 2011 process, to best take advantage of the on-going efforts of ACI and IATA. Payoff potential lies with the eventual widespread adoption of industry-consistent means of sharing information. Although benefit can be immediate, as airports are already in the process of imp
24、lementing new methods, barriers to a quick implementation include: adoption of new information sharing standards; migration to new technologies; and business barriers that may exist between community members, such as between airport operators and airlines. VII. RELATED RESEARCH This project can bene
