    Abstract: Tracking aircraft in and near a ramp area is described herein. One method includes receiving camera image data of an aircraft while the aircraft is approaching or in the ramp area, receiving LIDAR/Radar sensor data of an aircraft while the aircraft is approaching or in the ramp area, merging the camera image data and the LIDAR/Radar sensor data into a merged data set, and wherein the merged data set includes at least one of: data for determining the position and orientation of the aircraft relative to the position and orientation of the ramp area, data for determining speed of the aircraft, data for determining direction of the aircraft, data for determining proximity of the aircraft to a particular object within the ramp area, and data for forming a three dimensional virtual model of at least a portion of the aircraft from the merged data.

    Abstract: Airport gate visual docking guidance system digital twin methods, systems, and devices are described herein. One method includes: identifying that a device of the visual docking guidance system is non-responsive, determining which device is non-responsive, initiating start-up of one visual docking guidance system program selected from: a visual docking guidance system software program, a central computing system program, or an operating station program, selecting a digital twin data set corresponding to the device of the visual docking guidance system that was non-responsive, wherein the set includes parameter data that was customized by a user of the visual docking guidance system and is particular to the device of the visual docking guidance system that was non-responsive, and sending the digital twin parameter data to the device of the visual docking guidance system that was non-responsive to update one or more parameters stored in association with the visual docking guidance system program.

    Abstract: Methods, devices, and systems for airfield workflow management are described herein. One device includes a memory, and a processor to execute executable instructions stored in the memory to receive airfield information associated with an airfield of an airport, generate, using the airfield information, a fault management analysis for the airfield, where the fault management analysis includes a list of faults corresponding to equipment associated with the airfield and identifying information for each respective fault in the list, generate, in response to a selection of a fault from the list of faults, an information window corresponding to the selected fault, and display the fault management analysis in a single integrated display.
