ABSTRACT
An operational concept that involves integrating multiple Air Traffic Management
capabilities has been developed to enhance the way that Traffic Management initiatives
are coordinated and implemented, particularly in the area of rerouting flights
around congested areas or severe weather. By integrating these capabilities, all
parties involved with the flight, including traffic management specialists, air
traffic controllers, and airspace users, can efficiently and consistently identify
affected flights and the desired reroutes. The concept relies on the integration
of planned or existing automation systems to facilitate the way that reroutes
are coordinated and implemented. The concept calls for no additional workload
on the part of traffic management specialist, air traffic controller, or airspace
user. In fact, the concept facilitates the tasks currently done today by providing
more automated communication and access to common information. This concept has
already been used to develop requirements for the near-term integration of two
cornerstone capabilities: the User Request Evaluation Tool for traffic controllers
and the Collaborative Routing Coordination Tools capabilities for traffic management
specialists.
