Abstract: The authors introduce a best practice paper recently published by the ACI World Airport IT Standing Committee on Automated Passenger Flow Measurement Solutions. The paper shows how this supplier-independent best practice paper is structured and what benefit it can provide to those who want to implement and use such solutions in terminal buildings. Therefore, some general characteristics of the solutions are given, as well as the typical influencing factors from technology, terminal layout and passenger behaviour.
Keywords: terminal management, passenger flow performance indicators, waiting time, sensor technologies
