• Airport IQ Goals and Objectives
• The Project
• Getting involved
HORIZON 2020
• FP6/FP7 focused on research - Horizon 2020 is innovation & commercial
• Timeframe 2014–2020, €80bn of funding with SMEs receiving around 20%
• Environmental research and innovation
• Airport IQ is an Innovation project addressing the Transport Specific Programme
(H2020 Specific Programme: Part III – 4. Smart, green and integrated transport)
Smart, green and integrated transport H2020 Programme: Part III – 4
“to achieve a European transport system that is resource-efficient, climate- and environmentally-friendly, safe and seamless for the benefit of all citizens, the economy and society”.
a) Resource efficient transport that respects the environment.
b) Better mobility, less congestion, more safety and security.
c) Global leadership for the European transport industry.
d) Socio-economic and behavioural research and forward looking activities for policy
making.

Ways to improve aircraft turnaround
1. Transform how turnaround services are done
– lower cost services
– Invest in new equipment
– Simplified catering
– New approach to cleaning – e.g. air crew clean the plane
2. Remove services altogether
– Catering, cleaning, ..
3. Improve the quality of the information used in turnaround
– All can benefit from improved data
Precise Data = Better Decisions!
Why improve the quality of information?

Airport IQ Goal Improve accuracy • Many participants, lots of data, • How to collect? • How to ensure secure, safe, informed and accurate decisions.
Result : Wrong decisions, poor decisions, and
buffers, buffers everywhere.

A-CDM Common Objectives
Currently have the greatest challenges in enabling the flow of information. Airport IQ addresses this gap
TITAN Project
(Turnaround Integration in Trajectory and Network )
• Analysis of turnaround process
• The key stakeholders
– Airport Operators (AOP),
– Aircraft Operators (Airlines),
– Airport Ground Handling (GH),
– Air Navigation Service Providers (ANSP), and
– Central Flow Management Unit (CFMU).
• Scope
– The sequence of ground operations from
• AIBT (Actual In-Block Time)
• until AOBT (Actual Off-Block Time)
• included external services.
Services included:
– Passenger Flow Information Service (PFIS)
– Baggage Flow Information Service (BFIS)
– Aircraft Status Report Service (ASRS)
– Cargo/Mail Flow Information Service (CMFIS)
– Airport Information Report Service (AIRS)
”There’s an app for that”
”Let’s develop it first then give it to the
guys in the field once we know it
works”
”It’s only an app”

Airport IQ Concept
“Airport IQ will develop a mobile information sharing system connecting back-end A-CDM systems with mobile devices (smartphones, tablets and other wearable devices) carried by ground staff. The system will provide the right information at the right place and time to the right people, making it easier for planners to make optimal use of resources.”
