An analysis of enhanced traffic management system data using three dimensional MATLAB visualizations

Abstract

dc:description.abstract

In this thesis I use MATLAB visualizations to analyze right patterns over major airports. I will analyze capacity constraints on some of the nation's most congested airports, and define flight paths that converge on them using these MATLAB visualizations. I will also analyze the air traffic patterns over a specific number of sites around the United States where a change in plane surveillance technology is scheduled to occur.
