When airspace is partially or completely blocked by severe weather, a major challenge for airspace managers and users is the creation and selection of viable alternate routing for air traffic. Research is underway for an automated capability to help to meet this challenge. An important component of such a capability is the quantification of the attributes of operationally-acceptable routes. In this paper we describe two such quantifications, for route lateral deviation, and for flow preference.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
