Data Comm Program System Utilization Metrics Minutes of Comm Time Saved - This category of metric tracks how many controller/pilot communications minutes have been saved by the implemented DataComm functions. The metric is broadly covered by comparing known voice communication times with the communication times observed during DataComm exchanges. Pilot/Controller Efficiency B&M Task Order Metric Eligible Flights, Participating Flights, Flights w/ Successful Logons, Flights w/ Successful Session Establishments, Flights w/ Initial Clearance Requests, Flights w/ Initial Clearance Received, Percent of Flights Using CPDLC DCL, Flights w/ Revised Route Clearance Received, Percent of Total Flights Receiving Revised CPDLC DCL, Percent of Revised Flights Receiving Revised CPDLC DCL, Percent of Revisions Delivered Using CPDLC DCL, Flights w/ Revised EDCT Clearance Received, Flights w/ Revised Altitude Clearance Received, Flights w/ Revised Expected Altitude Clearance Received, Flights w/ Revised Departure Frequency Received, Flights w/ Revised Departure Contact, Flights w/ Revised Departure Local Info, Flights w/ Revised Squawk Code, Flights w/ Revised Departure Procedure Minutes of Comm Time Saved | |4 NIWG Metrics Mapping cont. NIWG NAC Airspace Throughput - This category of metric tracks the impact on peak departure rates, by airport, for both routine operations and weather or other disruption events. Data Comm Program Flight Throughput Ground Delays - This category of metric tracks the impact on taxi time changes, on taxi-time variability, and airport recovery which translates into schedule predictability for aircraft operators. Gate Departure Efficiency - This category of metric Delay tracks the impact on taxi-time, gate delay and number of cancelled flights. Actual Block Time Fuel Burn - This category of metric tracks the impact on the amount of fuel burned during ground operations and during the departure phase of flight. Implementation - Industry will jointly track with the FAA the operational milestones published by the program.
