FY20 Achievements in Aerospace and Transportation: Center For Advanced Aviation System Development

Abstract

In 1990, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) established its federally funded research and development center (FFRDC) to perform the advanced research and development needed to modernize the National Airspace System (NAS). As an FFRDC, the Center for Advanced Aviation System Development (CAASD) provides the FAA with advanced scientific and engineering technical capabilities in areas such as systems engineering, mathematics, and computer science, while applying in-depth aviation domain knowledge of Air Traffic Management (ATM), airspace operations, and aviation stakeholders relevant to the NAS and global aviation operations.
