  • Abstract:
    Accurate estimation of daily and annual aircraft operations at airports is vital for various objectives, including airport planning, funding allocation, and aviation forecasts. However, obtaining precise operational data from airports without control towers has been challenging. In 2018, the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) published an assessment of aircraft operations counting technologies at non-towered airports, considering best practices from prior studies. After five years of the arrival of technologies available for object detection applications, it is time to update the assessment. To achieve this, a systematic approach was followed, starting with defining terminology and types of aircraft operations for consistent understanding. A ranking methodology based on critical selection criteria was established. Thorough research was conducted on technologies used in aviation and other relevant fields, and components and costs were obtained from vendors. Feedback from state airport authorities and Florida airports regarding their used technologies was also collected. Onsite evaluation showed that all aircraft operations counting technologies evaluated are prone to introducing both undercounting and overcounting errors.
