What is FACET?
Key capabilities– Traffic and weather data
visualization
– Models airspace operations atnational level (~15,000 aircraft)
– Real-time decision support foroperational users
– Improves traffic throughputwhile maintaining safety
FACET models the National Airspace System, for both researchand operational use
– Developed as a simulation tool for NASA research
– Successfully transitioned to operational use
FACET is currently in operational use by FAA traffic flow managersand airline dispatchers
Aircraft Dispatchers FAA Flow Managersat ~100 sites
