Event Description/Abstract
Methods for Counting Aircraft at Non-Towered Airports | This Transportation Research Board–funded project analyzed three different methods for counting aircraft operations at airports without air traffic controllers: estimating operations per based aircraft, computing a flight plan to total operations ratio, and expanding a sample count. For taking sample counts, three different technologies were evaluated: acoustical, security cameras, and video image detection with ADS-B transponder receiver.
