ASPM Airport Efficiency Manual

Overview

The ASPM Airport Efficiency module of ASPM provides data on the System Airport Efficiency Rate (SAER) and Terminal Arrival Efficiency Rate (TAER) metrics. Access to this module is restricted.

ASPM Efficiency data can be viewed on the FAA Operations & Performance Data Web site.

For more information about the ASPM system, see Aviation System Performance Metrics (ASPM).

My Reports

My Reports displays a list of reports you saved after running your query. You may save a report after you enter your search criteria and select the 'Run' button. Then you may name your report and save it for future use. Reports can be created in all ASPM Efficiency system views. Selecting the information button will display a window listing the selection criteria used for the report. Selecting the deletion button will delete the report.

Saved Reports

This section lists reports that you have saved after clicking the 'Run' button. By clicking on the report name, you will be able to modify or update the saved report with new criteria. Just click on any of the desired tabs to change output, dates, airports, departures, arrivals, equipment, carriers, grouping, fields, and filter options. For more information about saving reports, see the Run section.

• Months
• Years (calendar and fiscal)
• Range
• Period

Please verify that your selection is for a time period in which data are available. Selected options will appear on the right.

Airports

In all ASPM Efficiency reports, you may select airports to obtain information about their departure and arrival activity.

When the default 'Quick Entry Mode' checkbox is selected, you can select airports by entering the airport code (or several codes separated by a space) to search for matching airports. By deselecting the 'Quick Entry Mode' option, you will be able to enter airport ID, name, or partial name of the airport to search for a list of matches. The autocomplete feature will suggest possible names of airports in a drop down menu. You may also select pre-defined groups such as ASPM 77, OPSNET 45, or Core 30 to enter a set of airports. To include all airports, do not select any.

Grouping

In the Standard and Operational Counts reports of ASPM Efficiency, you may group the data in the desired format. At least one selection has to be made. Click the green area beside the filter in the desired order. Note that grouping options are not available for

• Efficiency: Detail Report
• Efficiency: TAER Detail Analysis Report
• Efficiency: TAER Means Report
• Efficiency: Reportable Hours by Facility Report
• Efficiency: Daily Configuration By Hour Report
• Efficiency: Daily Weather By Hour Report
• Efficiency: Actual Runway Configuration Report
• Efficiency: Low IMC Configuration Use Report

Available grouping fields vary according to the report.

Select the 'Plus' button to choose the groupings for the report. Selected fields will appear on the right. Selected fields can be removed by selecting the 'Minus' button next to each selected field.

Filters

In ASPM Efficiency, you may select supplemental filters for your reports. Filters vary according to the report.
