Abstract:

TransSolutions has developed an airport-planning tool to assess the effect of demand and operational changes on the airport system. TransSolutions leads the aviation industry in the use of discrete-event simulation analysis to improve the design and operation of airport facilities. Using state-of-the-art modeling tools, TransSolutions evaluates terminal passenger flow, baggage systems, airport ground service equipment movements, and terminal curbside roadway systems. TRACS -- Terminal, Roadway, and Curbside Simulation -- now integrates a suite of TransSolutions' airport planning products into one tool. TRACS is a flexible planning tool that can be linked to other simulation products to provide clients with a comprehensive assessment of terminal performance and its interaction with the airspace, airfield, and roadways systems. Over 80% of the world's largest airports have benefited from this technology through better investment decisions based on objective, accurate facility performance data.
