Abstract

We develop traffic abstraction algorithms that, given a set of 4D Trajectories (4DTs), extract the traffic structure in terms of standard flows and critical points (conflict and merge points). We demonstrate the application of our techniques to enable the NextGen generic airspace concept. We also analyze historical demand data to evaluate the level of abstraction underlying the en-route traffic within high-altitude sectors. Finally, we compare the structure of historical traffic to user preferred, wind optimal futuristic trajectories.
