  1. Wade Lester Program Manager Embry-Riddle’s NextGen Role

  2. Overview • Integrated Airport Initiative • Daytona Beach NextGen Test Bed • Other Transaction Agreement (OTA) • Work Under the OTA • Integrate Weather into TMA and ERAM • International Flight Data Object • Unmanned Arial Vehicle Research

  3. Consortium Leadership Embry-Riddle’s NextGen Role Consortium Leadership

  4. Integrated Airport Initiative • A consortium of industry leaders to research and promote NextGen concepts • Formed March, 2006 • Catalyst for the development of what is now the Daytona Beach NextGen Test Bed Consortium Leadership

  5. Integrated Airport Initiative • IR&D • Surface Research • Member and Sponsor Supported • Roadmap Complete by February 2009 Consortium Leadership

  6. Membership *ERAU *Lockheed Martin Boeing CSC Ensco * co-lead Frequentis Mosaic ATM Sensis Volpe Center Barco Harris Consortium Leadership

  7. Test Bed Management Embry-Riddle’s NextGen Role

  8. Daytona Beach NextGen Test Bed (DBNTB) DB NextGen Test Bed Management • Initially named the Integrated Airport • DBNTB provides the platform for research and development of NextGen concepts • DBNTB will evolve into a robust platform that will support myriad systems and technologies Learn more: www.nextgenair.org

  9. DBNTB Enhancements DB NextGen Test Bed Management • Installed additional data storage capacity • Install Lockheed-Martin’s ERAM system – limited capability – mid-October • Install CSC’s Traffic Management Advisor (TMA) – limited capability – mid-October • Install additional power capacity – in progress • Install 10mbps Internet connectivity – in progress • AT Coach simulation software – procurement in progress

  10. DBNTB Future Plans DB NextGen Test Bed Management • Future Plans • Possible second site • Future funding for DBNTB

  11. NextGen Test Bed Systems Architecture

  12. Program Management Embry-Riddle’s NextGen Role

  13. Other Transaction Agreement (OTA) NextGen Program Management • Key Points • In effect until 2013 • Embry-Riddle is the prime • Embry-Riddle provides the Program Manager • Tasks assigned to consortium members • Other agencies can use this contract vehicle

  14. The “OTA” NextGen Program Management • Work under this OTA … expands the integrated airport concept and laboratory to serve as a Next Generation Air Transportation System (NextGen) Test Bed • ERAU and the FAA will perform operational research, evaluation and demonstration of synergy among available, emerging and planned NextGen concepts, procedures, technologies and capabilities at the NextGen Test Bed, and at other facilities or locations as required by specific tasking. • This facility is a component of the NextGen Test Bed centered on the state of Florida.

  15. R&D Activities NextGen Program Management

  16. OTA Activities NextGen Program Management • Task A – Demonstrate the Integration of Convective Weather into TMA and ERAM: • Effort supported by: Embry-Riddle, Lockheed-Martin, CSC, Ensco, Boeing, Volpe Center • Project is well underway and on schedule. • The formal demonstration is scheduled for November 18, 2008. • A second event for Test Bed ribbon cutting and demonstrations for VIPs and media is planned for Spring 2009.

  17. OTA Activities NextGen Program Management • Task D – Flight Data Object Demonstration • Effort supported by: Lockheed-Martin and Embry-Riddle • The kickoff meeting was conducted and issues resolved. • The project plan drafted and submitted to members. • The formal demonstration is scheduled for early March, 2009. • Task E – UAV Research Opportunity

  18. Program Schedule NextGen Program Management

  19. Task A – Integrated Wx Into TMA and ERAM NextGen Program Management • Network-enabled integration of predictive weather into TMA and ERAM • “Reduce Weather Impact” solution set in the NextGen Implementation Plan • Concept demonstration, not an acquisition or implementation solution • All documents will be made available to the public.

  20. Task A – Integrated Wx Into TMA and ERAM NextGen Program Management • Benefits: • Showing how the integration of predictive weather into decision support tools may improve operations by allowing for proactive planning. • Using an open architecture (swim-like) to integrate predictive weather into ERAM and TMA. • Providing RUC data to TMA from an alternative source via swim-like concepts.
