53 Also like the AAC, use of the counters on an airport with multiple runways is very difficult because of double counting, various wind conditions, and numerous possible rotation points. SMAC Highlights.

55 ADS-B, this technology will not provide a reasonably accurate way to count an airport's traffic. VID and ADS-B Transponder Receiver Highlights.

56 Toward the end of this research project, an inquiry was received from a company with a new type of technology for counting aircraft. The technology monitors the airport Unicom frequency and uses automated speech recognition to identify and record airport traffic.
