Understand How Airport Projects Impact Operations.

AERefinery helps airports evaluate, understand, manage, and communicate the operational impacts of infrastructure projects, airfield changes, obstacles, navigational aids, and environmental conditions. Built specifically for airport operators, planners, engineers, and consultants, the platform combines aviation data, geospatial analysis, project information, and operational intelligence into a single platform that supports more informed and defensible decision-making — while enabling greater interoperability between airport and airline operations, strengthening coordination, and keeping stakeholders aligned as projects evolve.

Everything that affects airport operations. One connected platform.

Airport decisions are rarely isolated. A runway closure can affect NAVAIDs. A new obstacle can affect protected surfaces. Weather patterns can change planning assumptions. AERefinery brings these variables into one environment so teams can see the full operational picture.

The Problem Airport projects create operational questions before construction ever begins.

Whatever the question, you get the same analysis-driven approach: certified performance data, proprietary modeling built on PIXM, and engineering judgment shaped by hundreds of real airport and operator projects.

Construction impacts

Phasing and closures ripple into daily operations.

NAVAID & visual aid impacts

Relocations affect approaches and guidance.

Obstacle constraints

Existing and proposed obstacles limit surfaces.

Weather & runway-use variables

Conditions shift planning assumptions.

Stakeholder coordination

Teams work from disconnected sources of truth.

Regulatory & user communication

Decisions must hold up under review.

What AeRefinery Does Built for the real variables that shape airport operations.

A suite of connected product capabilities, not a long list of services.

Historical Weather Intelligence

Analyze historical temperatures, winds, runway utilization patterns, visibility, precipitation, and other environmental factors that influence airport planning and operational decisions.

Benefit

Better planning based on actual operating conditions.

Project Impact Analysis

Evaluate how runway closures, taxiway rehabilitation, NAVAID relocations, construction activities, and future development projects may affect airport operations.

Benefit

Identify impacts early and reduce project risk.

Obstacle Intelligence

Manage and evaluate existing and proposed obstacles affecting airport operations, protected surfaces, and future development initiatives.

Benefit

Improve visibility into operational constraints and mitigation opportunities.

Airfield Infrastructure Analysis

Assess runway geometry, visual guidance systems, navigational aids, and airport infrastructure within a common operating environment.

Benefit

Support more informed planning and investment decisions.

Airport Project Management

Track active and proposed projects, schedules, phasing plans, documentation, and operational impacts through a centralized airport dashboard.

Benefit

Improve coordination across airport teams and stakeholders.

How the Work Gets Done

01

Define the Project

Load airport infrastructure, project limits, construction phasing, obstacle information, or operational scenarios.

02

Analyze Operational Impacts

AERefinery evaluates interactions between infrastructure, protected surfaces, weather conditions, obstacles, and project activities.

03

Review Results

Visual dashboards and analytical outputs identify impacts, constraints, and operational considerations.

04

Communicate & Manage

Share information with stakeholders, support decisions, and track project progress through implementation.

AERefinery is built for the teams responsible for airport planning, development, and operations.

Airport Operators

Monitor operational impacts and support day-to-day decision-making.

Planning & Engineering Teams

Evaluate infrastructure improvements and future development scenarios.

Airport Consultants

Perform project impact assessments and support planning studies.

Airport Authorities

Improve visibility across operational, capital, and regulatory initiatives.

Design & Construction Teams

Understand how project phasing may affect airport operations and stakeholders.

Key Benefits Better visibility. Earlier risk identification. More defensible decisions.

We were built for the intersection of flight operations engineering and data-driven decision support — a combination rare enough that we take on the questions other consultants can’t.

Visibility

Complete Airport Visibility

Integrate infrastructure, operational, weather, obstacle, and project information into a single environment.

Why It Matters

Airport teams spend less time collecting information and more time making decisions.

Defensibility

More Defensible Decisions

Apply consistent analytical methodologies supported by authoritative aviation datasets.

Why It Matters

Provides confidence when communicating with regulators, consultants, airlines, and project stakeholders.

Risk

Earlier Risk Identification

Identify operational impacts before construction begins or infrastructure changes are implemented.

Why It Matters

Reduces schedule disruptions, rework, and unexpected operational consequences.

Coordination

Improved Stakeholder Coordination

Create a common operating picture for airport staff, consultants, contractors, and airfield users.

Why It Matters

Improves collaboration and communication across complex airport programs.

Use Cases Use AERefinery wherever project decisions affect operational capability.

Runway Rehabilitation Programs

Evaluate operational impacts associated with runway closures, shortened runways, and phased construction activities.

Outcome

Improved planning and reduced operational disruption.
