IGF::OT::IGF THIS STATEMENT OF WORK (SOW) BUILDS ON PRIOR WORK PERFORMED UNDER SBIR II AND II-X FUNDING(NNX14CL21C) BY INTELLIGENT AUTOMATION, INC. (IAI) WHICH DEVELOPED A SOFTWARE TOOL CALLED METROSIM. METROSIM MANAGES AIR TRAFFIC FOR ARRIVALS, DEPARTURES, AND SURFACE OPERATIONS FOR MULTIPLE AIRPORTS IN A METROPLEX. UNDER SBIR III (NNL15AF57P), METROSIM IS CURRENTLY BEING INTEGRATED WITH A NASA DISTRIBUTED SIMULATION TEST BED. UNDER SBIR II (NNX11CB71C), IAI ALSO INTEGRATED A NASA FAST-TIME SIMULATION CALLED AIRSPACE CONCEPTS EVALUATION SIMULATION WITH THE MERGING AND SPACING PLUG-IN (ACES WITH M&S) WITH THE FAA S NOISE PREDICTION TOOL, AEDT. ALL OF THESE TECHNOLOGIES - METROSIM, ACES WITH M&S, AND THE INTEGRATION TO AEDT - ARE PRECURSORS TO THE WORK OF THIS SOW. THIS TASKS DEFINED IN THIS SOW WILL CONFIGURE SIMULATION AND ANALYSIS TOOLS TO REPRESENT AIRPORTS AND OPERATIONS FOR NEW YORK, AND WILL USE THOSE TOOLS TO CONDUCT RESEARCH ON THE IMPACT OF OPERATIONAL CHOICES ON THROUGHPUT, EVALUATION COSTS AND BENEFITS. THIS SUPPORTS NEW YORK NOVEL AIRSPACE CONFIGURATIONS (NYNAC) RESEARCH BEING CONDUCTED UNDER THE AIRSPACE OPERATIONS AND SAFETY PROGRAM/SHADOW MODE ASSESSMENT OF REALISTIC TECHNOLOGIES IN THE NATIONAL AIRSPACE SYSTEM/INITIAL TRAJECTORY BASED OPERATIONS (AOSP/SMART NAS/INITIAL TBO), AND IS BEING DONE IN COLLABORATION WITH THE PORT AUTHORITY OF NEW YORK AND NEW JERSEY (PANYNJ).
