Herramienta gráfica para el control del tráfico aéreo.Simulación de vuelo de tráfico histórico

Abstract

[ES] The aim of the present project is to provide a graphical representation tool for traffic simulation. This tool is supposed to be able to simulate historic traffics from .so6 files provided by Eurocontrol. The purpose is to visualize and analyze Merge Point approaches and to provide the basis of a future tool for air traffic controllers which includes a relative position indicator. In the first part of this work, the objectives and program requirements for the tool to develop are specified. The second part gives the theoretical background of the Merge Point approaches and lists its advantages based on recent studies. For the total understanding of Merge Point and to provide some background knowledge, the concept of air space management is introduced and airspace structure and the kind of holdings that exist depending on the navigation method used (traditional or RNAV) are explained. To give an example, the Merge Point approach of Dublin Airport for runway 28 is described in more detail, as the same example is used as well for the use case in the third part of this work. All the tools and sources used for the development of the program are also introduced in this second part, including a short introduction in object oriented programming since the language used for the development of the program is Java 8. Finally, in the third part, the developed tool is explained and class interaction visualized by UMLs. A use case of Dublin Airport runway 28 was carried out and is included at the end of the program illustration in order to demonstrate its functioning.
