NASA is conducting a field test of the Airspace Technology Demonstration2 (ATD-2) to evaluate an Integrated Arrival, Departure, and Surface (IADS) traffic management system. The IADS system was deployed to Charlotte Douglas International Airport (CLT) in 2017 for a three-year field evaluation. The Phase 1 field evaluation included tactical surface metering, which manages departure excess taxi time by tactically assigning gate holds. Phase 2 built upon the lessons learned from Phase 1 to extend surface metering into the strategic metering timeframes. In this paper, we describe the strategic metering capabilities of the ATD-2 IADS system and the operational results from CLT.
