Airspace Flow Rate Forecast Algorithms, Validation, and Implementation.

摘要

This report summarizes work performed by MIT Lincoln Laboratory during the period 1 February 2015 – 30 November 2015 focused on developing and improving algorithms to estimate the impact of convective weather on air traffic flows. The core motivation for the work is the need to improve strategic traffic flow management in the National Airspace System. The algorithms developed as part of this work translate multiple weather forecast products into a discrete airspace impact metric called permeability.
