Decision making will be based on more reliable information with enhanced decision impact assessment. Expected is an increase in the predictability, flexibility and efficiency of airport operations as well as increased resilience through shorter recovery to normal operations. Focus : PJ04 is articulated around two ‘SESAR Solutions’, emphasising all of the key airport processes. Integration of airports into the ATM
