Deze publicatie presenteert de resultaten van het Smartest Connected Cargo Airport Schiphol (SCCAS)-project: een tweejarig onderzoek naar logistieke innovaties die de concurrentiepositie van Schiphol op de luchtvrachtketen versterken. In dit project hebben KLM Cargo, Schiphol Nederland, Cargonaut, TU Delft en Hogeschool van Amsterdam samen met diverse partijen in de luchtvrachtketen nieuwe inzichten ontwikkeld om het afhandelingsproces op Schiphol te stroomlijnen en de productkwaliteit in temperatuurgevoelige ketens zoals bloemen en farma beter te beheersen.In Europa heeft Schiphol een sterke positie: het is de derde vrachtluchthaven na Frankfurt en Parijs. Door de beperking van het aantal beschikbare slots op Schiphol krijgen andere luchthavens zoals Brussel, Luik en Luxemburg de kans om extra lading aan te trekken. Het is daarom de ambitie van Schiphol zich te ontwikkelen tot de Europese voorkeursluchthaven voor logistiek hoogwaardige goederenstromen zoals e-commerce, farmaceutische producten en bloemen, en zich te onderscheiden door een efficiënt en betrouwbaar afhandelingsproces. Om die positie te bereiken zet Schiphol in op vier concrete innovatiedoelstellingen:- verbetering van transparantie in de keten door het delen van informatie;- inzicht in logistieke prestaties op basis van volledige en betrouwbare data over zendingen;- efficiënte en betrouwbare aan- en afvoer van luchtvrachtzendingen (landside pickup & delivery);- procesverbeteringen in de supply chains van temperatuurgevoelige producten.
This paper focuses on the use of discrete event simulation (DES) as a decision support tool for airport land use development. As a study case, Querétaro Airport (Mexico) is used, due to its rapid growth and the different services it offers. The SIMIO® software was used to carry out a macro-level simulation of the airport’s processes, considering generic process times, flight types and demand schedules. The resulting strategic simulation model can be used to diagnose the current growth situation, analyse the airport's growth potential, and evaluate different expansion scenarios using the available land, including the expansion of the terminal building, cargo operations or MRO. The arrival and departure of aircraft (commercial, cargo, maintenance, aviation school and private aviation) at the airport were simulated to detect bottlenecks for different expansion scenarios, that aim to find an optimal balance between the growth options in the different airport grounds. The objective is to compare the potential growth of different layout expansion possibilities. Preliminary results indicate that land use options have a great impact on the growth potential of the airport and some general aviation activities, such as the aviation school, are interfering with the potential growth of other activities at Querétaro Airport.
