ABSTRACT
This report describes field evaluations of Traffic Flow Management (TFM) capabilities prototyped on the Collaborative Routing and Coordination Tools (CRCT) Concept Demonstration and Evaluation Prototype (CDEP). Evaluations were conducted during FY01 by FAA Traffic Management Coordinators (TMCs), facilitated by MITRE/CAASD. Three sites participated in the evaluations: the Air Traffic Control System Command Center (ATCSCC), and the Air Route Traffic Control Centers (ARTCCs) at Indianapolis (ZID) and Kansas City (ZKC). The evaluations helped identify which functions prototyped in CRCT were ready to incorporate in future releases of the enhanced Traffic Management System (ETMS), which is the operational TFM decision support system (DSS).
