Abstract
This study was aiming at developing a methodology to assess expected benefits of a better use of CDRs, in the framework of DMEAN. The results, in terms of distance flown and ATFM delay, are intended to be used as input in a cost benefit analysis, using EMOSIA. A methodology to assess the expected benefits of a better use of CDRs has been developed. It particular, the use of COCA to evaluate sector capacity variations provided interesting results which could have been translated in forecast delay variations, using PACT and GASEL. The results in terms of delay reduction are conservative. Therefore, the use of these results can be used initially as input in a CBA. It is proposed to conduct another study with the following improvements:
– various enhancements of the methodology
– the use of optimised traffic samples
– the updating of the ACC capacity figures.
