Minneapolis-St. Paul Develops Modular Noise Monitoring System

摘要

The Metropolitan Airports Commission (MAC) is taking a significantly new approach in redesigning the noise monitoring and tracking system for Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport (MSP). Rather than use a suite of services packaged by a single vendor, MAC is developing a modular system that will allow greater flexibility and enhanced features at a lower cost. The new system has three main components: ERA will perform the flight data acquisition and Harris Miller Miller & Hanson the data processing, then MAC, working with open source technology providers, will develop the front end, reporting, and data analysis functionality. "This type of model is exciting," Chad Leqve, MAC aviation noise program manager, told NRR.
