JPE Adds Customized Google Search

The Joint Planning Environment (JPE) can now automatically link you to relevant Web-based information on all NextGen Operational Improvements.  The JPE uses Google Custom Search and Google Scholar capabilities with carefully designed key words associated with each Operational Improvement, to give JPE users a “one-step” literature search capability.  This capability can be accessed on each Operational Improvement page in the JPE.  Just look below the “Attributes” table on any Operational Improvement page to find the clickable “Google References” and “Google Scholar References” buttons.

    The Google feature is pretty nifty, but unfortunately Google Scholar doesn’t have a lot of the ATM R&D material.

    For example, I tried it with OI307 (integrated arrival/departure airspace management) and the only thing that came up was a 1997 Nextor report by Boeing.

    As an ATM R&D person, this Google shortcoming is of concern. Any ideas on what can be done about this?

      Hi there!

      Thanks for your comments.

      In response to your question, if individuals know of specific Web sites that have relevant documents and information, we can add those to the Google Special Search feature. One thing that might improve the Google Scholar search is if ATCA archived its technical journal online.

      Hope that helps! Let us know if you need anything else.

    There are a number of web sites where one can find research articles and reports.

    For example, if you search the AIAA or IEEE web sites for “4D trajectories” many recent relevant articles come back.

    Other places where one might find relevant research reports are the Eurocontrol and NASA web sites.

    Shortly, we will have all of the ATC Quarterly articles searchable (at “atcquarterly.org”)

      Hi Dres,

      We search those sites on the Google Custom Search side, and you will see the results if you click on “Google References.”
