Motivation
Optimize airport ground handling operationsAvoid delays induced by ground operationsIncrease safety due to improved situational awarenessReduce costs by efficient utilizationReduce emissionsReduce workload
Vehicle Management System (elements)Detection and identification of vehiclesCommunication by data linkProviding traffic situationSupport in scheduling of tasks
“Airports may become the bottleneck of the ATM System”

Results
Quality and coverage of the wireless infrastructure good
Use of GPS possible – better results and indoor navigation with additional sensors
Connection to operational systems successful
Proof of the overall system concept
First feedback positive – especially from dispatchers
but
Proof of operational benefits still missing – simulator trials
