Presentation Overview2
Land Use Compatibility3
Airport and Land Use Compatibility
• The compatible land use planning concept was an outgrowth of the focus of attention on the environmental relationship between airports and their community neighbours. This planning concept is relatively simple and the results can be impressive, but the implementation requires careful study and co-ordinated planning.
• TP1247 primary reference document – Transport Canada.
• Understanding the geographic extents and inter-relationships.
• Not enough to only consider airport certification.
• Start with “furthest” point from airport and work towards airport.
Obstacle Limitation / Instrument Approaches4
Obstacle Limitation Surfaces (OLS)
• Airport Certification
• Protection for visual segments of flight operations.
• Federal Zoning Regulations
Obstacle Clearance Surfaces (OCS)
• TP308 – Instrument Approach Procedure Design
• Not related to Certification
• Impacts minimum descent altitudes
• Extend well beyond Obstacle Limitation Surfaces (OLS)
• NAV CANADA (Objection/No Objection/Existing/No Mitigiations)
Composite Mapping (AVPA)5
Reactive Approach
• Redesign Instrument Approach Procedures
• GNSS vs. traditional NAVAIDS (NDB/VOR/DME) - Mitigations
• Funding for Redesigns
Proactive Approach
Merge the contraints
Consider existing and future runway operations
Consider future instrument approach procedures.
Develop composite mapping
Requires coordination with municipal governments
Time Frame (4 years) – Map/Proposals/Design/Publications
Bird Hazard Protection6
8 km Radius
• Landfills
• Agricultural Issue
• Open water sources
• Bird Experts involved.
• Federal Zoning Regulations
• May or may not be in your Regulations.
• Municipal Strikes and Impacts on Garbage Collection
Electronic Zoning Protection7
Navaids
• ILS
• Glide Path
• Localizer
• NDB
• DME
• VOR
• Federal Zoning Regulations
• May or may not be in your Regulations.
Communication Systems / Radar (Wx and ATC)
ATC/FSS Sight Lines8
NAV CANADA
• Airfield (Manoeuvring areas)
• Approaches
• Circuits
• On-site
• Airport Control and Obligation
• Legal Agreements with NAV CANADA
• Off-site
• Cooperative Approach
• Not addressed within federal Aeronautical Zoning Regulations
Noise Exposure Forecast (NEF)9
Aircraft Noise
Compatible Development Guidelines
Primarily used to limit Residential Developments
Historically updated every 5-10 years
New practice – Longer Term Practical Capacity of Airfield
Municipal government implementation – planning bylaws/development plans
GNSS Approachs (LPVs)10
GNSS LPV approaches
Rollout throughout Canada – New Generation Approaches
Minimum decent to as low as 250’ (only 50’ higher than CAT I ILS)
NAV CANADA
Published survey requirements
Extend beyond property
Extend beyond certification obstacle limitation surfaces
Ensure potential LPV minimums are protected
Need to consider additional controls outside airport
Cooperation with local neighbours
Practical Field Tools – Front line Observations11
Part of routine airfield inspection process
Understanding complexity of off-site/on-site constraints
Tools available
Old Tech
New Tech
Cost effective
Practical Field Tools (Older Tech)12
Handheld Clinometers/Laser Range Finders:
o Low cost ($200-$500)
o Simple to Use
o Setup Key Locations on Airfield
Practical Field Tools (New Tech)13
