Modern airport management - fostering individual door-to-door travel

Airports are intermodal hubs and natural interfaces between ground transport and air transport. In a recent DLR project, an innovative approach is being developed to extend the concept of A-CDM and TAM not only to airport landside and terminal processes but to go even further and incorporate feeder traffic in the management of airport processes. Thus providing travelers with a real door-to-door service and letting airport stakeholders benefit from efficient airport management. The research prototype developed in this project will be depicted in detail and functional principles will be explained.
