Airspace Operations and Safety Program
Applied Traffic Flow Management
Project Description
Domestic Applied Traffic Flow Management develops and delivers air/ground technologies and procedures to the FAA and flight operators that enable reduced weather-induced delays through the integration of weather information to better manage aircraft, traffic flow, airspace and schedule constraints.
More »Anticipated Benefits
• Efficient re-routes that are traffic-manager friendly, avoid merging streams, weather proximity, and congestion. • Integrated solutions extend NASA domestic air/ground capabilities for individual aircraft and streams of aircraft to overcome traffic flow management challenges and achieve reduced lengths of conservative pre-flight routes.
