Abstract
This article is the second part of the review of airspace planning systems. The first part provided a comparative analysis of known air situation models: network, probabilistic, load dynamics, expert, air situation development, potentials, entropy. The second part provides a comparative analysis of existing approaches to airspace planning: route synthesis, ATM load management, flight plans optimization, single air conflict resolution, departure/arrival flow planning. The advantages and disadvantages of the analyzed approaches are identified, their classification is proposed based on the physical meaning and completeness of the group.
