Abstract :
The purpose of this study was to establish the feasibility of employing remote video technology in the collection of runway and weather condition information at rural airports in Interior Alaska. An additional goal was to use decision support techniques to identify the best-qualified airports, among twenty-three, at which to conduct a one-year test of the benefits of remote video in this setting. The study commenced on 1 June 1998 and ended on 21 June 1998
