NLR’s expertise covers Air Traffic Management (ATM) technology and concepts, aircraft and airport operations, airport and airspace capacity, safety, aircraft and community noise, aviation emissions and impact mitigation options. We have developed and apply powerful and validated tools, for combined aircraft noise, emissions and third party risk calculation around airports (TUNA, LEAS-iT, TRIPAC), and an emissions policy analysis tool for aviation stakeholder analysis (AERO-MS), a virtual community noise simulator (VCNS), and airport tower and ATC fast-time simulators (NARSIM).
We have many years of experience which can help you to gain insight into aircraft fuel use and emissions, local air quality around airports and aviation policy analysis. Our emission model LEAS-iT gives you a 4-dimensional distribution model of aircraft emissions around an airport. With AERO-MS we can perform aviation policy analysis and determine the effects of an ETS, a ticket tax, SAF and other policy options relevant for you. Based on our proven knowledge and experience we can advise you about how to reduce aircraft emissions and improve local air quality.
NLR can support you with:
- Gaining insight into aviation emissions and their contribution to local air quality
- Reducing aircraft fuel burn and emissions
- Calculating and improving local air quality around airports
- Conducting aviation policy analysis
