Abstract :
Current automated methods for gathering weather and runway condition information at remote public airports in Alaska are limited. This paper establishes the feasibility of using remote video to complement existing systems. It uses two multi-criteria decision-making techniques-AHP and MAU-to recommend the most qualified airstrips in Interior Alaska at which to conduct a one-year test of this technology
