PASSENGER FLOW AND PROCESS SIMULATION SOFTWARE
CAST Terminal can be applied for a variety of use cases. On the one hand the software
is used to assess future facility requirements and to validate new terminal layouts
and processes in order to achieve maximum planning reliability at the earliest stage.
Additionally, CAST Terminal provides great potentials to optimize the existing terminal
facilities and processes within various operational scenarios.
With CAST Terminal, an entire airport or its individual parts can be investigated in
detail in order to cost-effectively conduct analyses aiming at:
» Planning of optimal and balanced terminal infrastructure
» Identifying bottlenecks and testing mitigation measures
» Detecting “hidden” capacity and optimizing the usage of resources
» Analysis of Level of Service and ensuring highest passenger convenience
» Identification of the most effective and cost efficient operational concept
» Support of tactical and strategic decision-making in airport operations and
management
The user-friendly interface allows fast and straightforward modelling of complex
infrastructures and processes as they appear in real world airport terminals.
The software offers the configuration of numerous airport-specific parameters concerning
facilities and passengers leading to the most reliable results. Besides the generation of
relevant statistical data, the 3D visualization is an essential feature to convince decision
makers.
FURTHER FEATURES
» Flexible representation of terminal facilities (abstract or detailed)
» Import of CAD layouts and various 3D object files
» Flexible generation of passengers based on airport specifics and flight schedules
» Analysis of various statistical data (e.g. LoS, queuing and dwelling times, utilization rates,
occupancy level, etc.)
» Rule- and demand-based resource allocation with Gantt chart visualization
» Pre-designed analysis templates for easy KPI extraction
