10 Mrz A-BOOST – Next Generation Allocation

Airport Research Center GmbH and Amsterdam University of Applied Sciences cooperate as research partners in this project to take aircraft stand allocation to a new level. This is made possible by by applying Artificial Intelligence (AI) based data analysis methods to predict the expected schedule variance and anticipate this in stand planning. The project is being funded by the German Federal Ministry of Transport and Digital Infrastructure via mFUND.

18 Feb Terminal Collaborative Decision Making

Together with ARC, Hong Kong International Airport (HKIA) is implementing a CAST based solution to predict the capacity situation on the day of operation and to be able to carry out strategic and tactical planning of the airport processes. Furthermore, the system allows all stakeholders a common view on the planned capacity situation and expected demand at all terminal processes.

18 Dez COVID-19 Vaccination Center

In a global effort to overcome the COVID crisis, many authorities around the world are currently setting up vaccination centers. ARC has therefore developed a CAST simulation model to represent all processes of such a vaccination center in a realistic 3D environment. By analyzing various scenarios and stress tests, the planned configuration of the vaccination center can be verified and optimized to avoid potential bottlenecks.

09 Dez Research Project: Integrated Multimodal Airport Operations

The goal of the EU funded IMHOTEP project is to develop a concept of operations and a set of data analysis methods and tools that allow information sharing, common situational awareness and real-time collaborative decision-making between airports and ground transport stakeholders.

05 Nov CAST Simulation of COVID Testing on Departure

COVID-19 Testing prior to flight departures receives more and more attention. Recently, there have been several initiatives from airports and airlines to conduct COVID testing prior to flight departures. The process of testing at the point of departure is still difficult to manage on a larger scale due to the time and cost associated with evaluating reliable tests.
