From page 67...
... 67 stakeholders to set appropriate expectations based on the requirements and constraints of a given study or project. Following the introduction section, a detailed description of the array of profile modeling techniques that existed before AEDT, that are new to AEDT, and that are provided by ACRP 0255 is included in Section 2.
From page 68...
... 68 contains altitude control functionality for profile customization but FAA policy has not confirmed that it can be used for airport-level noise analyses. If not supported by FAA regulatory policy, the outcomes for this research may only be applicable for researchoriented environmental analyses.
From page 69...
... 69 Criteria for Judging Progress of Implementation We believe that the criteria for judging progress for the implementation effort can be measured only one to two years after the results of this research have been adopted by AEDT and made available to its users. Only then will anyone be able to quantify the rate of use of the research outcomes through evaluation of the publicly available documentation describing the methods and data used for regulatory environmental analyses, as these types of analyses generally take a long time to complete and there is often a lag between when new capabilities first become available within FAA regulatory tools and when they are first applied to actual analyses.
