Preliminary numerical study on groundwater system at the Hong Kong International Airport
The Hong Kong International Airport was built on a man-made island. The groundwater head of the deep basal sand and gravel aquifer remains high several years after the land reclamation. The heads in different aquifers indicate an upward groundwater flow. The aim of this study is to understand the abnormally high pore water pressure in the basal aquifer. The most plausible explanation for the ab...
متن کاملWorld-wide Precision Airport Mapping Databases for Aviation Applications
Future cockpit and aviation applications require high quality airport databases. Accuracy, resolution, integrity, completeness, traceability, and timeliness [1] are key requirements. For most aviation applications, attributed vector databases are needed. The geometry is based on points, lines, and closed polygons. To document the needs for aviation industry RTCA and EUROCAE developed in a joint...
متن کاملAviation Applications of the Pulsed Doppler LIDAR – Experience in Hong Kong
The Hong Kong Observatory (HKO) introduced a Doppler LIDAR to the Hong Kong International Airport (HKIA) in 2002, the first LIDAR for aviation alerting services in the world. Since then, HKO has developed a number of weather products based on the LIDAR’s velocity and backscatter power data. LIDAR is found to provide crucial information in a wide variety of aviation applications. This paper give...
متن کاملA model to forecast airport-level General Aviation demand
General Aviation (GA) demand forecast plays an important role in aviation management, planning and policy making. The objective of this paper is to develop an airport-level GA demand forecast model. The GA demand at an airport is modeled as a function of social-economic and demographic factors, the availability of supply factors, the competition from the commercial aviation, the number of based...
متن کاملAWE: Aviation Weather Data Visualization
The two official sources for aviation weather reports both require the pilot to mentally visualize the provided information. In contrast, our system, Aviation Weather Environment (AWE) presents aviation specific weather available to pilots in an easy to visualize form. We start with a computer-generated textual briefing for a specific area. We map this briefing onto a grid specific to the pilot...
