Abstract:

Annual calculations of airport taxiway and airspace route usage can be based on data samples generated by airfield and airspace simulation modeling. The modeler faces two challenges in developing these data sets. First, quality assurance and control on large and complex data sets is difficult to efficiently accomplish at the level of detail required, and second, combining simulation data with data from other sources requires reorganization of data and often requires enhancement of simulation data to re-introduce real-world variability. Landrum & Brown developed the Taxiway Layout Analyzer (TLA) to assist modelers in evaluating and using detailed taxiway information from simulation models. METRON has developed the Airspace Design Tool (ADT) to assist modelers in developing noise analysis data sets from multiple data sources including simulation models. Each of these programs creates an analysis environment that allows modelers to quickly assess the quality of the simulation runs or to graphically summarize complex model network information. These tools work with both SIMMOD and TAAM. This workshop presentation discusses how use of both tools identified relatively simple changes to the state of the art of airfield and airspace simulation modeling data that would improve the realism of modeling by introducing more variability in aircraft performance.
