Problematic Taxiway Geometry Study Overview
The U.S. Federal Aviation Administration has released a report that develops a geographic information system database inventory of pilot deviation and vehicle/pedestrian deviation runway incursions, problematic taxiway geometry locations, and areas currently designated as hot spots. This research was conducted after it was determined that nonstandard taxiway/runway geometry was a contributing factor in many runway incursions and wrong runway takeoffs/landings.
