SBIR/STTR
Trajectory-Based Operations (TBO) Cost Estimation, Phase I
Project Introduction
The Innovation Laboratory, Inc., proposes to build a tool to estimate airline costs under TBO. This tool includes a cost model that explicitly reasons about traffic demand and weather conditions in the National Airspace System (NAS), mathematical models for weather translation and ATM-impact, line of flight impacts of delay propagation, large quantities of historical NAS and airline data ("Big Data"), and fixed and variable cost accounting.

Anticipated Benefits
Potential NASA Commercial Applications: NASA can use this cost estimation tool to address the cost/benefits of TBO. Also, it can be linked to traffic flow management (TFM) optimization algorithms to assess the costs to airlines of TFM strategies.
