## Post Operations Evaluation Tool (POET)

- Developed under CDM program by
- Metron, Cognitive Systems Engineering, AMT Systems Engineering
- Analysis tool focused on NAS-wide collaborative routing type problems

- GOAL: To provide the means to explore what actually occurred in the NAS as compared to what was planned from a _system_ perspective

## POET Data Source

- Direct ETMS data feed
- Data available Near Real Time (~1 hr time late)
- “Rolling” 45-day database spanning entire NAS maintained on servers at ATCSCC & Metron.
- Capability to integrate FAA data with airline-provided flight data (when available)

## Intuitive user interface for defining searches
Results can be aggregated into a variety of bins
by airport
by center
by time bins
by user class
by airline
by NRP
etc.
Metrics computed for each bin include
Departure delay
En route delay
Arrival delay
% Held (airborne)
etc.

## Analyzing Your Results

**Analyzing Your Results**

- Results presented using ***interactive*** tables, charts, and geographic displays
- Subdivide or combine groups at multiple levels
- Drill all the way down to specific flights
- Algorithmically recognize patterns/trends using Data Mining tools
- Circular airborne holding
- Arrival fix “swaps”
- Flown routes significantly different from filed routes
- Replay flights as they flew
