Original Abstract Submitted
Systems and methods are provided for quantifying airport taxiway congestion. The systems include a database comprising airport data indicating runways of an airport and taxi edges of the airport, positions of aircraft at the airport, and taxi paths of aircraft at the airport, and one or more controllers configured to, by one or more processors, determine a number of aircraft instructed to proceed to a first of the taxi edges, and generate a congestion factor for the first taxi edge based, at least in part, on the number of aircraft proceeding to the first taxi edge.
