Abstract
The Alliance for Sustainable Air Transportation (ASAT) was a non-profit public-private partnership with federal, state, regional, and local government entities and academic institutions intended to assist US airports, in cooperation with the global industry, transition to a next generation air traffic control system in order to increase safety, decrease congestion, and lower fuel consumption. ASAT supported NextGen, an initiative to transform the air transportation system by leveraging new technologies, such as satellite-based navigation, surveillance, and networking.
