Airport personnel are invited to a TRB webinar on Wednesday, November 20, 2019, from 2:00 PM to 3:30 PM ET. The webinar features research from the Airport Cooperative Research Program (ACRP) Research Report 200: Using GIS for Collaborative Land Use Compatibility Planning Near Airports.

To mitigate hazards, ensure safety and efficiency for aircraft operations, and uphold the quality of life in surrounding communities, airports must maintain compatible land use. However, land use planning faces many challenges, such as requiring significant amounts of data and technical analysis and engaging multiple stakeholders with different priorities. Geographic Information Systems (GIS) data and applications are proven means of fostering collaboration between airports and surrounding stakeholders to achieve optimal land use compatibility. This webinar will describe research, results, and tools that airports and their neighbors can use to effectively apply GIS towards this increasingly challenging goal.

This webinar is sponsored by the Airport Cooperative Research Program. There is no fee to attend this webinar; however, sign into MyTRB.org to view registration information.

Webinar Presenter:

  • Randy Murphy, Arora Engineers, Inc.

Moderated by: Dan Bartholomew, Reno-Tahoe Airport Authority
