All across the country, airports are now facing many challenges related to resiliency and the possible disruption of airport traffic. This presentation will focus on the factors impacting the ability of airports to respond to those factors, including climate change, localized flooding, heat waves, and snow events. As these weather events can impact passengers and workers, the need for airports to be able to respond to extreme events is greater than ever.

There are currently more than 572,000 registered pilots in the United States, ranging from commercial UAS pilots to commercial manned aircraft. Although pilots are registered in each of the 50 states, where they live and reside can be seen through various forms of geospatial statistical analysis in a geographic information system. This talk explores spatial patterns of the FAA U.S. Airmen database through hotspot and cluster-based analysis of the database.

The abilities of UAS to gather high-resolution imagery over a given area on a frequent basis are now well-known to those in the construction and excavation industries. Less well known, however, are the ways that UAS data can be used in value-added data analysis. Using real-world examples, this talk explores how UAS data can be used for modeling and monitoring in a geo-graphic information system (GIS).

This session presents alternative approaches for using unmanned aerial systems for checking the alignment of precision approach path indicators (PAPI lights). UAS data acquired at the KLAF (Purdue) airport will be used as an illustrative example.
