FASTNet Project

Every flight begins and ends at airports, which makes them essential nodes in the aviation network. The project will make use of advances in data technologies to help fully integrate airport operations into the network (AOP-NOP integration). The project will focus on the pre-tactical and strategic planning, using artificial intelligence to enable airport-to-airport collaborative planning within the network operations plan. The project also aims to extend the timeframe of the AOP-NOP integration, from months to days in advance of departure. The project will rely on state-of-the-art technologies to integrate new datasets available at local level, such as local restrictions, pre-tactical flight information and strategic local information in order to enrich demand and capacity balancing information and ensure efficient planning from the strategic phase. Co-funded by the European Union.
