ACRP Report 150<\/em>\u00a0informs airport operators about some of the NextGen programs\u00a0and how the enabling practices, data, and technologies resulting from them will affect airports\u00a0and change how they operate.<\/p>\n This Primer\u00a0 is a high-level overview of NextGen designed for airport directors and their senior executive staff. It\u00a0provides an introduction to the five volumes of ACRP Report 150<\/em> that contain detailed technical information and planning guidelines for understanding, preparing for, and implementing NextGen technologies at airports.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Volume 1\u00a0provides comprehensive information to practitioners concerning all aspects of performance-based navigation (PBN) and how implementation affects overall airport operations. This Resource Guide encompasses background information, impacts on short- and long-term airport development, and safety and performance measures. In addition to guiding users on available resources, this volume includes lessons learned and best practices based on findings from case studies that examined the airport operator\u2019s role in PBN implementation.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Volume 2 and the NextGen Outreach Toolkit<\/a>\u00a0explain the important role of airports in the implementation of performance-based navigation procedures and other NextGen initiatives. Airport planning, communications and marketing, and operations managers and staff will also learn how they can help their airport to develop, implement, and sustain an effective stakeholder engagement program, central to optimal implementation of NextGen capabilities.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Volume 3 presents an overview of the many elements of NextGen in terms and context that are relevant, familiar, and understandable to airport operators; broadly addresses potential airport impacts; and includes background information so that airport personnel can discern which NextGen programs will impact them and how. The report includes a list of NextGen technologies and initiatives as well as a likely timeline for implementation. A Public Information Toolkit<\/a>\u00a0was created for communicating about the NextGen initiative to the broad spectrum of external stakeholders.<\/p>\n Volume 4 documents the benefits that can be derived from spatial data collected in support of the FAA\u2019s NextGen effort, how NextGen programs use these data, and how airports can maximize the use of these data.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Volume 5 provides information and guidance to help airport industry practitioners understand and incorporate NextGen capabilities into their planning efforts for all categories of airports.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" What Is NextGen?
