SOLUTION MODELING OF A COLLISION FOR AIRPORT APPROACH LIGHTS AND ACCESS ROAD AT TIVAT AIRPORT

Sažetak

Construction of a new road has been planned in
the approach area of Tivat Airport in Montenegro.
The route of the new road collides with the
existing approach lights of the airport, which are
part of the lighting system for the safe landing
of aircraft. This paper presents a solution for
collision issues using modelling methods. The
initial hypothesis was confirmed at the Department
of Electrical Engineering, Zagreb University
of Applied Sciences, and is based on scientific
Elaborations using the Image-Based Lighting
Model. The model analyses and processes the
airport approach light plane and approximates
it using an image of global illumination (Global
Illumination Model). The large-source light image
model is applicable to airport approach lighting
systems that are viewed as separate entities.
The modelling parameters include legislative
requirements for: a) road traffic safety, b) air
traffic safety at the airport for both the existing and
newly designed state, c) the approach lights and
d) the access road. A detailed study using project
solutions (both available and new projects) and
the existing state of the airport approach lighting
system was conducted. The conclusion is the
synthesis of all safety restrictions, which solved
the collision problems between the new road and
the existing airport approach lighting pillars.
