Abstract
This research will develop and implement a non-CO2 emissions calculation model into Flightkeys’ flight planning system. New trajectories will be computed through the application of a climate cost function to the cost optimizer. The goal will be to study and compare climate cost routes with their optimal counterparts and come up with an optimal balance between added cost for airlines and climate reduction.
