Integrated Airport Apron Safety Fleet Management (AAS)

Start date: May 1, 2008, End date: Apr 30, 2011,

One of the main challenges in the apron area is that due to many different companies operating on an airport apron, each company brings in the vehicles and equipment it requires to sustain operation. This causes high levels of congestion in ramp areas, which increases the accident rate and the chances of vehicles and equipment being misused. By gaining telematic data on the running times of the va ...
