ATD-3 Ground-side Display Operational at Alaska Airlines
February 22, 2018


NASCENT display at Alaska Airlines System Operations Center in Seattle, Washington.

On February 8, 2018, NASA Ames Airspace Technology Demonstration 3 (ATD-3) personnel provided continuous access to the National Airspace System Constraint Evaluation and Notification Tool (NASCENT) display at the Alaska Airlines System Operations Center in Seattle, Washington. This activity was the first step towards deploying the ground-side component of the Multi-Agent Air/Ground Integrated Coordination (MAAGIC) partnership with Alaska Airlines. MAAGIC consists of the ground-side component, NASCENT from Ames Research Center, and airborne component, Traffic Aware Planner (TAP), from Langley Research Center. The goal of MAAGIC is to demonstrate air/ground coordination of reroutes to support flight operators and service providers in managing dynamic en-route trajectory changes to improve flight and system performance in the presence of convective weather and other airspace constraints. The NASCENT system provides efficient advisories for rerouting around airspace constraints like weather, across the contiguous United States, providing time and fuel savings to Alaska Airlines. The secure access to Alaska Airlines allows full interactive capability of NASCENT, without permitting access to any other NASA internal systems. (POC: Karl Bilimoria)
