The section points out the reactionary and inflexible features of master plans with a static vision of the future.
It cautions planners and managers that strategic planning as practiced in business has also fallen out of favor.
Planners and managers will find the lively discussion on shortcomings of forecasts, a valuable eye-opener. It documents that "forecasts are always wrong and unreliable"; therefore, plans based on wrong forecasts also will be wrong. Because planners must deal with forecasting in all spheres of their activities, they will find this discourse insightful. It represents a new vision for airport planning in the current environment where privatized airlines compete in a deregulated environment, and privatized airports respond proactively to perceived opportunities and threats.
The basic approach is that airport operators must dynamically adjust their planning programs over time to accommodate a variety of future scenarios. The chapter on Airfield Design points out the common mistakes, including: failure to provide flexibility, overbuilding in early stages of airport operations, adopting a non- integrating approach among the various airport elements, and insufficient appreciation for economic implications of design choices.
Through dynamic planning, costly mistakes could be avoided. To address the increased complexity involved, guidance is provided for the appropriate use of computer-based tools, such as decision analysis and simulation models. Planners will also find the chapter on Environmental Impacts of interest. These categories are among the most significant, and are well covered. The section on noise particularly provides excellent, simply presented information on all aspects of noise analysis and mitigation.
This easily understandable treatment of the subject is not commonly available. While the significance of public participation is outlined, the elements and significance of environmental impact study procedural requirements are not addressed.
This was perhaps intended. For airport operators and airlines, chapters on organization and financing, user charges, and cash flow analysis provide valuable information. The authors present incisive analysis of interactions between traffic operations over time, airline schedules, and configuration and design of airfield facilities.
Effects on capacity and delay are analyzed, followed by recommendations for demand management and facility utilization. The concept of capacity as a function of level of service is well articulated de Neufville argued almost three decades ago in Airport Systems Planning MIT Press, Cambridge, MA, , that airport capacity is a function of level of service and should not be viewed like the fixed capacity of a bottle. Practical discussion covers the interests of passengers, service providers, retail operators, and government.
The section on Ground Access and Distribution provides a clear perspective on the nature of demand and the role and effectiveness of alternative modes of travel. The book critically examines the effectiveness of people movers and mechanical baggage distribution systems, cautioning the reader to avoid costly mistakes such as that at Denver International Airport. The book covers all aspects of airport system planning, design, and management in a comprehensive and innovative manner not available elsewhere.
It is a must reading for the practitioners and academics. Journal of the American Planning Association The book will serve as a valuable companion to students of aviation and airport management, thanks to an effective mix of conceptual discussion, real-world examples, and graphic illustrations.
Students will appreciate the book as a one-stop shop for airport issues, introducing readers to a wide variety of commercial and policy topics facing airport operators, tenants, and communities. Odoni and Dr. I particularly admire their ability to comprehend the implications of complex airport issues, to develop workable solutions, and to explain these solutions in understandable terms to practitioners and politicians. Lloyd McCoomb, Vice-President, Planning and Development, Greater Toronto Airport Authority Two of the most influential professors of airport planning have drawn their vast experience to produce the authoritative text on the complex topic of airport systems.
Their lively style and valuable insights make this essential reading for those who would understand and guide the future development of air transportation.
The content spans a wide range from the fundamental principles of transportation systems to the details of airport design. Whether your interest is in public policy, planning, design, or management, this book is a critical and up-to-date reference for your activities. Federal Aviation Administration. About the Author Dr. His expertise is in forecasting, risk management, competition between airports, and the configuration and design of passenger buildings.
Amedeo Odoni is the T. He specializes in the use of operations research and other quantitative methods in planning, designing, operating and evaluating airport and air traffic management systems. Posting Komentar. Diberdayakan oleh Blogger. Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.
