The Federal Aviation Administration continues to assess ways to prevent runway incursions and other airport operational incursions, especially during ground vehicle operations at airports. The minimum operational performance specifications described in this report identify a stand-alone incursion warning system for a ground vehicle driver. A global positioning system (GPS) was used to provide vehicle location information for this warning system. The objectives of this research were to evaluate current navigation devices for use in airport ground vehicles to prevent airport incursions, provide recommendation criteria for the design and operation of a system defining both minimum performance and optimal features, and provide cost estimates for the procurement of equipment. |
