CAST EXPRESS - FACILITY REQUIREMENT AND CAPACITY PLANNING
)
CAST Express is especially designed for the needs of airport planners and operators to
support the fast capacity assessment of terminal processes and facilities. CAST Express
offers advanced facility requirement analyses to support the optimized planning of
facilities and resources.
CAST Express simulates all passenger processes in airport terminals with their KPIs like
queue length, waiting times and area utilization as well as the assessment of Level of
Service quality performance.
The Scenario Manager enables quick specification of multiple scenarios that need to be
compared to, for instance, test different versions of passenger processes or compare runs
with different flight schedules.
CAST Express results are displayed on dashboards within CAST Analysis in order to
summarize simulation results and compare different scenarios.
In daily use, the user can e.g. quickly test changes in the operation by supplying the
simulation model with changed parameters such as the flight schedule or operational
parameters. The results can be provided by CAST Express in standard reports for a quick
understanding of the analysis.
