Computer Vision for Airport Ops Series-Pt 5, 'Boarding & Transfers'

Aircraft Dwell Time

• Use computer vision to lessen the dwell time of the aircraft at the gate.
• Identify ground assets and track their utilization status from catering, refueling, chocks, baggage, cleaning and more.
• Monitor the gateway extension and passenger boarding/disembarking to ensure the passengers are counted and the aircraft is ready for turnaround.

Runway Safety

• Quickly identify foreign objects on the tarmac, runway and apron.
• Set up zones around the aircraft at rest, ensuring no staff or passengers are at risk of security breaches.
• Prevent or identify unsafe behaviors by providing increased visibility of passengers and ground staff and the provision of alerts to agents and operations personnel.

Gate Turnaround

• Identify apron events at a glance. Gather baseline data on aircraft servicing and improve each process in the chain.
• Reduce operational costs with video analysis of the gate management. Identify gaps in processes, time them and streamline the process.
• Monitor boarding of passengers, as well as ground staff to deliver a full understanding of every event.

Increased Capacity
(Without Adding Infrastructure)

• Minimize delays by identifying any team members who are off schedule. Identify where agents and assets are most needed.
• Move away from over-rostering and to a needs based maintenance scenario.
• Add flights by optimizing your ground crew performance.
