• The Office of Airports (ARP) Safety Data Mining effort collected 10 years (2003-2013) of surface events and the analysis report identified the top airport risks.

• 6,855 Geopoints (locations) – Yellow Dots– 2,306 points (more than 33%) associated with at least 1 RI

4

Background - PTG History

Federal AviationAdministration

• 7,552 Runway Incursions Events Geo-referenced– Data mining effort collected 8+ years (2007-2015) of RI data from towered airports. – V/PDs and PDs

Locations Determined by:• 3 or more RI in a CY• Avg 1 or more RI per

year over study period• Field validation of

locations, RIs, and geometry

RIM Points = RIM locations

Hot Spots vs. RIM locations• Hot Spots

• RSAT• RSO

• RIM• RI data• Field validation

Runway Incursion Mitigation (RIM)

Federal AviationAdministration

• 140 geopoints initially identified for RIM Program based on:– Number of RIs in a given year (3 or more)– Number of Cumulative RIs over study period– Number of Wrong Runway Takeoff and Landings

• After Field Validation– 28 locations had been mitigated/projects identified– 112 locations remained part of the initial inventory

Runway Incursion Mitigation (RIM)

Federal AviationAdministration

Runway Incursion Mitigation (RIM)• February 2015 - Field Validated• June 2015 – Public rollout of RIM• July 2015 – Early Projects

– $11 million in AIP funding– 12 RIM locations

• August 2015 – Preliminary Alternatives Development and “Rough Magnitude of Cost”

• September 2015 – Draft 2016 program cost

Current Status• December, 2015: FY 2014 RIM Points verified

– Revised Inventory – 117 RIM locations– Available at:

http://www.faa.gov/airports/special_programs/rim/• June 30, 2016: Top 20 RIM BP Goal Met

– Mitigation plan, timeline, cost estimate

• FY 2016 BP Goal of 10 RIM location projects met– More than 35 locations have had projects initiated

• RIM locations mitigated• October 2016: RIM Data Management Tool released

Future Endeavors• Fall 2016 – Field Validate FY & CY 2015 PTG

locations– RIM Data Management Tool– Annual update

• FY 2017 and Beyond – Planning, Design and Mitigation Implementation– Address potential (non-RIM, PTG) locations for RIs

RIM FAA Roles/Responsibilities

• Track Effectiveness of program• Communicate and coordinate w/

Industry Partners• Validate potential RIM locations• Coordinate with Airport Sponsors

– Assist in mitigation development

• Coordinate with FAA LOBs– ATCT/Procedures– Facilitate mitigation implementation

• Continue to look for other PTG locations to mitigate
