MANTEA will develop decision-support tools for airport operators, airport traffic controllers and local authorities to simulate, plan and guide surface traffic in European airports.
Decision-support tools will be developed to simulate, plan and guide traffic flows in airports. These tools were validated at the Roma, Milan and Orly airports. They will allow air traffic controllers to make tactical decisions about managing traffic flow and airport authorities to make long term decisions about infrastructure planning. The tools will be made commercially available world-wide.
The objective of the MANTEA project was to develop decision support tools dedicated to the improvement of surface traffic management in airports. Two integrated sets of tools were developed, each oriented towards a different type of user.
The MANTEA controller tools were the first set, and MACAD (MANTEA Airport Capacity And Delay) was the second one. The MACAD set aimed at providing automated assistance to airport authorities in the task of planning and simulating evolution of airport infrastructure in order to optimise its capacity. During its life, the MANTEA project covered market and user requirement analysis, specification, design, development and validation of decision support tools at user sites. The use of decision tools for ground management should allow a better flow of arrivals and departures, and as a consequence great benefits for taxiing times and fuel consumption. In the safety domain, another area of benefit exists with the introduction of the conflict detection function. The use of tools will benefit the air carriers both in terms of reduced delays and fuel consumption, and in terms of their image with the end users. This, in turn, will improve the profitability and competitiveness of the European carriers, helping them to face the challenge of the upcoming deregulation.
Availability of capacity at many European airports will be of critical importance to particular airports and their local consumers. The major problems are likely to be encountered at Europe's hub airports. There are airports where demand already exceeds supply and other airports that will still have spare capacity in 2010 to meet continuing growth. IATA predicts that the total air transport demand in the European area will grow annually from 3.8% to 5.2%. Capacity estimates clearly illustrate the scope for ensuring greater use of existing capacity by operational improvements using tools like the ones proposed by MANTEA, both for controllers and airport authorities.
The need for A-SMGCS tools and macroscopic analytical tools is not limited to particular types of airports, but is essentially global. Airport policy-makers will be supported by macroscopic models that assist in strategic planning, investment strategy development, and cost-benefit evaluations.
