ATD-2 Software Release for Phase 2 Field Demonstration
October 12, 2018

NASA’s Airspace Technology Demonstration 2 (ATD-2) Software Development Team delivered version 4.0.0 of the Integrated Arrival/Departure/Surface (IADS) system to Charlotte Douglas International Airport (CLT) on September 11, 2018. This software is now in daily operational use in the American Airlines (AAL) ramp tower, CLT Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) air traffic control tower, Washington En Route Center and Atlanta En Route Center. ATD-2 has followed an agile requirements definition and software development process wherein field demo partners engage with the IADS system in live-data shadow evaluation sessions and provide the research team with feedback on system requirements. The IADS version 4.0.0 release includes requirements identified during shadow sessions conducted from February through May of 2018. Key areas of development included the ATD-2 integration with Advanced Electronic Flight Strips (AEFS), Atlanta Center participation in Integrated Departure/Arrival Capability (IDAC)-like scheduling into Time-Based Flow Management (TBFM), strategic surface metering capabilities, and publishing ATD-2 data to the FAA System-Wide Information Management (SWIM) architecture via the Terminal Flight Data Manager (TFDM) Terminal Publication (TTP) prototype. IADS software version 4.1.0 will be released in mid-October and will incorporate feedback from the field to further refine the IADS system. (POC: Andrew Ging)
