Airport Real-Time GIS System
The Los Angeles Department of Airports (LADOA) Noise Management Bureau (NMB) has developed a complex system known as the Aircraft Noise Monitoring and Management System (ANMMS). The ANMMS is a collection of advanced technologies that relate environmental impacts to spatial locations. These technologies involve a complex array of sensors, preprocessing technologies, data management systems, and displays. The data is used to analyze impacts and document all of the problems caused by aircraft operations at one of the largest airports in the world, Los Angeles International Airport (LAX). The ANMMS has been used to make new in-flight policies to lower noise impacts. This paper will describe the environmental sensors, the radar data collection and display, the correlation between the noise, radar, and complaints, and the analysis of the noise data. This paper will discuss the true real-time nature of this GIS application and how the technologies are used to instantly display aircraft causing community noise
impacts. This paper will describe the technological component parts and how they relate to the ArcInfo GIS application. The components discussed will include data collection devices, data assembly and processing computers, database servers, Oracle applications, and Visual Basic applications. This data is then fed into an ArcInfo GIS system for final impact analysis and display.
