Terminal Capacity Planning

Get the most out of your terminal.

Deviation in passenger numbers or the terminal layout, technology changes or process adaptations, the base conditions of an airport environment are permanently changing. All these changes impact the overall terminal capacity. In order to identify bottlenecks, AMORPH.aero offers an easy, fast and flexible way for airport and PAX flow modeling, scenario evaluation and capacity analysis.

AMORPH.aero Feature Module	Usage Description
PLANNING STUDIO	Starting with the creation of an airport model, a PAX flow model is developed. By simulating passenger flows within the airport and applying different simulation scenarios the terminal capacity can be optimized. Airport resources can be planned for most efficient usage.

Flight Link Predictor

Flight Link Predictor is a versatile tool for creating reliable stand allocation planning.

Predicting the link between Inbound & Outbound flights through historical link behavior, turnaround times can be analyzed to plan the corresponding ground handling staff & equipment.

Highlights:

Uses Artificial Intelligence to predict future linked flights based on provided historical links;
The Machine Learning algorithms consider airline restrictions, time constraints and airplane types as base features;
Possibility to integrate with an airport AODB so that the predicted links can be pushed from Link Predictor to the AODB.

Social Distancing Analysis

Evaluating the impact of social distancing at the entire terminal building

Social Distancing is a topic that every airport around the world is taking on now. The impact of having people distance themselfs will be considerable. Planning Studio is a valuable tool to evaluate the impact Social Distancing will have as it simulates at a passenger level the journey from curb to gate in both directions.

As a result of passenger simulation, airport planners can identify zones where current capacity might not be enough in order to ensure the Social Distancing and therefore make further simulation where architectural changes can be considered, processing times altered or rediction of certain passengers flows as some examples of the ways the Planning Studio can empower the planners which are having difficulties in a pandemic constelation.

Staff Planning & Ordering

Perfectly balance your airport‘s staff with precise forecasts.

Staff for securities and other check-points are one of the highest expenditures with the biggest impact on the passenger flow at airports. The best balance of staff is needed to achieve your Service Level Agreements without oversizing. Accurate forecasts are fundamental to achieve this. AMORPH.aero covers therefore all required forecast horizons from seasonal to operational!

AMORPH.aero Feature Module	Usage Description
FLOW PLANNER	AMORPH.aero Flow Planner produces the basis for all staff decisions, which is the accurate calculation of passenger demand at your check-points. By communicating with your security provider, you can always send out the latest demand calculation and integrate the staff rostering from security to see whether the staff plans fit your SLA requirements.
