The Importance of Data Governance for AI Applications at Airports

Artificial intelligence (AI)I is revolutionizing the aviation industry by simplifying processes that were previously completed manually by humans. AI uses mathematical and data analysis processes to mimic human decision-making and has the potential to transform airport operations (Strome, 2024). Subcategories of AI include machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL) which involve algorithms that model […]

Bridging the Gap: Financial, Operational, and Modernization Challenges Facing Nonhub Primary Commercial Service Airports

Introduction Nonhub primary commercial service (NPCS) airports are a critical component of the United States (U.S.) National Airspace System (NAS). These less busy airports are generally located in smaller communities and connected to the broader aviation network of hub airports. In addition to providing passenger travel options, NPCS airports play a vital role in the

The Systematic Financial Disparity Between Large Hub and Nonhub Primary Commercial Service Airports

The safety and efficiency of the National Airspace System (NAS) hinges on the reliability of the airport infrastructure that it utilizes. Airport managers are expected to maintain runways, taxiways, parking aprons, clearance zones, terminals, etc., to meet FAA compliance standards. However, airport maintenance and development projects are expensive, and airport revenue streams change based on

Unauthorized Unmanned Aerial Systems Operations in the National Airspace System: Understanding the Safety Implications for America’s Airports

This capstone research project analyzed the current data available regarding unauthorized unmanned aerial system (UAS) operations in the national airspace system (NAS) to determine the safety implications they pose to America’s airports. The methodology of this study included the analysis of historical research gathered from the Federal Aviation Administration’s (FAA) Reported UAS Sightings reports. A
