Last Exit, Emergency?
Summertime means high peak season for airports. As lots of airports are already operating close to their maximum capacity during this period they try to handle the masses as best as they can.
But, what if an airport is forced to close their terminal due to overload? Sounds unrealistic? Not at all!
In times with increasing passenger numbers, some airports are hit by double digit growth. This means for them, facing growth rates they probably did not expect in their long-term vision and extension plans some years ago. So they have to adopt quickly according to these changes to see the future impact towards their infrastructure.
Regarding the available floor space, the IATA recommendation for the average space needed per passenger is 1.0-1.2 sqm. Operating below these figures is not only uncomfortable for passengers, it also creates a potential risk to them in case of an emergency evacuation. Airport operation control needs to be aware of this risk and act accordingly to prevent them. So, the message should be:
Be aware and act preventive!
Amorph Systems offers a unique flow forecasting platform with high quality predictions and online simulation for the evaluation of future flows during the day of operations.
This enables Airport Operations to de-risk their daily operational decision making in preventing queues and high congestions, by acting beforehand the situation occurs.
The solution is sizeable and therefore can be applied to small & medium regional airports up to large HUB airports (references are airports like: FRA, HEL, ZRH, NTE).
