Assessment of Ramp Times (ART 2) Human-In-The-Loop (HITL) Simulation - Final Results

Airspace Technology Demonstration 2 (ATD-2) sub-project conducted a human-in-the-loop (HITL) simulation to assess various strategies for Ramp controllers to deliver aircraft to the spot at a specified time. Results show that the rate of compliance with the spot time improved when Ramp controllers first complied with a gate hold advisory for pushing aircraft off the gates. Results also show that Ramp controller workload was lower when they only had to focus on complying with the gate hold advisories.

Ramp Traffic Console (RTC) Capabilities and Use in Operational Environment (Part 1)

This presentation provides an overview of ramp traffic control (RTC) and ramp manager traffic console (RMTC) features of ATD-2 Integrated Arrival, Departure, and Surface (IADS) system and will discuss operational use cases that cover surface metering, notification and optional hold of APREQ (approval request/call for release), EDCT (expected departure clearance time), and ground stops.

Fuser and Fuser in the Cloud

The ˜Fuser' is the name of the SWIM data integration service that has been built, utilized and evolved on ATD-2 to synchronize trajectory predictions from multiple decision support tools. NASA is researching ways to make this data stream available for broader consumption as an example implementation that would help reduce the burden for consumers while enabling access to data that would help industry prepare and innovate for TFDM (e.g. integrates TTP feed).

Understand and Process ATC Restrictions in the National Airspace System: Part 2

Continues Part 1 discussion by using ATD-2 technology as a stand-in for expected TMI entries in the future TFDM system. This topic will focus on the importance of stream insertion and how flights can meet both tactical and strategic constraints and will briefly cover the TMI data being made available in the new TTP SWIM feed.

Assessment of Ramp Times 4 (ART-4) Human-in-the-Loop (HITL) Simulation - Final Results

Airspace Technology Demonstration 2 (ATD-2) sub-project conducted a Human-in-the-Loop (HITL) simulation to assess Ramp Controllers ability to deliver aircraft to the spot within the compliance window (+/- 5 min) under various metering conditions. Compliance at the spot was similar between the different metering conditions ranging between 83% - 85% and increased to 92% - 99% when aircraft were initially compliant with gate advisories. Metering benefits that exist in the field did not appear in the simulation due to simulation artifacts such as gate holding departures in Baseline, which effectively metered the demand. The combined Target Off-Block Time (TOBT) +Target Movement Area entry Time (TMAT) condition resulted in higher workload on the Workload Assessment Keypad (WAK) than the Baseline and TOBT alone conditions, and lower situation awareness than the Baseline condition. Metering at Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport (DFW) with TOBT only or TMAT only could be equally effective, and either would be a better option than TOBT + TMAT due to increased workload and reduced situation awareness.

Ramp Traffic Console (RTC) Ramp Manager Traffic Console (RMTC) User Manual

This document serves as a user manual for the Ramp Traffic Console (RTC) in the Ramp Control Tower. It describes the elements of the RTC interface and provides explanations for how to utilize the RTC to manage ramp traffic. The RTC provides live data for all flights including Earliest Off-Block Times (EOBT) and Traffic Management Initiatives (TMI). The RTC augments management of ramp traffic by providing notifications of runway configurations, and lists flight arrivals, near arrivals and departures as additional sources of information. If applicable, this document also provides instructions for use of the Ramp Manager Traffic Console (RMTC) for ramp manager functions of adjusting the priority flight list, and setting ramp status. The RTC/RMTC ramp tool are components of Airspace Technology Demonstration-2.
