Abstract

The high congestion of airports, due to the increase in air traffic demand and the lack of significant infrastructure interventions, must be accompanied by a high level of security in airport areas. The risk related to interference between aircraft and vehicles during ground movements is still high and, for this reason, adequate distances must be ensured between them as well as during flight. In particular, the airport traffic areas must be monitored continuously in order to know at any time the position of all moving objects, land and ground vehicles. This note proposes an integrated GPS and GIS system for the monitoring of airport areas, following the new requirements of the Intelligent Transport System (ITS) applications and with an innovative communication between GIS networks. This system we also used for the development and subsequent verification of a new approach to RWY 33 of the Reggio Calabria airport, applying the RNAV technique.
