Methodology

Impact Monitor lies on a three-pillar structure:

Impact Monitoring Protocol and Interfaces to R&I
Technical implementation and demonstration of the Impact Monitoring Capability
Dissemination & Communication

The Impact Monitor Use Cases and Analysis models are selected to demonstrate the capabilities of the collaborative assessment framework/toolbox.
As demonstration uses cases, they should exhibit several characteristics:

They are to be related to the three streams among European aviation R&I categories: i) Aircraft technology and concepts, ii) Operations Policies and iii) Regulations
They demonstrate the ability to smoothly connect up to three levels of assessment at Aircraft level, Airport level and Air transport System level, depending on the metrics targeted by the application
They should take advantage of the flexibility brought by the framework to integrate a representative set of assessment models tailored to the demonstration objectives
