INTELLIGENT SUITE FOR LOCAL AND NETWORK DEMAND AND CAPACITY BALANCING

Project description

AI and machine learning for on-demand air traffic services

Air traffic management (ATM) plays a vital role in delivering safe and efficient air transport services. However, the current demands of air transport call for an improved cost-efficiency of air traffic services provision, while maintaining safety. The EU-funded ISLAND project will conduct industrial research that streamlines the timely and efficient creation and use of airspace capacity. Project work focuses on the implementation of advanced levels of dynamic airspace configuration, employing various virtualisation models, digital INAP applications and network-wide monitoring with a high degree of automation. The project harnesses the power of artificial intelligence and machine learning to provide on-demand air traffic services that can flexibly adapt to meet traffic demands, ensuring a continuous and uninterrupted provision of ATM services.

Objective

The Project encompasses the industrial research aimed to timely and efficiently create and use airspace capacity, in combination with targeted, effective demand and/or capacity measures. As such, it will focus on advanced levels of dynamic airspace configuration, Leveraging different virtualization models, digital INAP applications as well as Network-wide monitoring, all with high levels of automation. The project addresses the R&I need for on-demand air traffic services reflective of traffic demand, and the continuity of ATM service despite disruption. The project exploits the latest advancements in artificial intelligence and machine learning, to supply a variety of supporting toolsets to ATM stakeholders that enable rapid exploration of options for the deployment of capacity-on-demand solutions, whenever and wherever required. The benefits include increased en-route capacity and improved cost-efficiency of ATS provision, without compromising the current safety levels.
