Air traffic simulation software Airside Aircraft

for airport

The AirTOp ground module models air side ground traffic. Realistic, detailed models of airport ground layout can be built, supporting airport design or air traffic simulation. It can be used as a stand-alone application, and is also integrated into the AirTOp framework, making it possible to combine it with the other AirTOp modules and providing complete terminal-to-terminal simulation capability. Key benefits Linking ATFCM, ATC, Airport and Airline data, aircraft ground movements are precisely modelled and analysed in AirTOp. When reorganising taxi-routes, implementing mixed mode runway configuration or new ground equipment, potential bottlenecks on the surface can easily be visualised and alternative scenarios can be tested. Performance indicators such as fuel-burn, taxi-time or runway queues can be extracted and discussed with stakeholders on a common platform. AirTOp is used by more than 10 major airports and airlines worldwide. Scenario definition The import and graphical editing tools enable fast and precise designs of airport ground layout, DXF or .pol layouts can be imported, and/or airport satellite images or charts can be used as background to the map view. AirTOp thus features all ground airport structures including runway entries/exits/crossings/stop bars, taxiway segments, gates, remote parking positions, long term parking positions, aprons, hangars, de-icing stations, and more, as well as all associated usage restrictions.
