CAST Terminal is the leading multi-agent simulation system, offering highly flexible and realistic passenger flow modelling and analysis.

CAST Terminal is used to determine facility requirements and validate new terminal layout designs, achieving the highest planning reliability at the earliest possible stage. It also offers great potential to optimize existing facilities and processes under a wide range of operational scenarios.

CAST Stand & Gate Allocation is the most powerful support tool for quick and cost-efficient resource allocation. The software supports airports, airlines and consulting companies in long-term, medium-term and (pre-) operational stand & gate planning and allocation tasks.

Applying CAST Stand & Gate Allocation leads to an optimized capacity, allows handling of higher traffic volumes and increases the quality of the allocation regarding passenger comfort, airline preferences and operational goals.

SOLUTIONS powered by CAST are customized software services to predict passenger demand and optimized resource supply.

The PAX FLOW SOLUTION enables fast, predictive analysis of terminal processes, integrated directly into the airport's operating systems. It gives operators a clear view of the next hours of operations, so resources and staff can be deployed more efficiently. Passenger flows, numbers, and facility requirements are continuously calculated and shared with stakeholders as live KPIs, while What-If functions allow decision options to be compared in minutes. The solution supports both real-time operations and tactical capacity planning.

„We were able to reduce the annual working hours at security checkpoints by 7% while the number of passengers increased by 4%. The higher efficiency results in significant savings of operating expenses while the reduced waiting times improved the passenger experience simultaneously. “

CAST Aircraft is the most flexible, comprehensive and efficient modelling tool for aircraft traffic at airports and in the airspace. It enables rapid, scenario-based evaluation of systems at scalable levels of detail, helping to remove bottlenecks, plan resources, and assess and improve system capacity.

CAST Aircraft supports infrastructure planning, from layout validation to identifying bottlenecks and optimizing construction phasing. It also helps optimize operations, including delay reduction, allocation strategies, and de-icing and snow clearance planning, while enabling detailed capacity analysis, from determining system capacity to balancing demand through slot planning.

CAST Vehicle Ground Handling is the leading fast-time simulation tool for evaluating airside vehicle traffic and ground handling processes. It supports planning, optimization, and validation of the airside road network and ground support equipment (GSE) facilities.

Applications range from capacity analysis and resource planning to comparing layouts and operational strategies, reducing ground handling delays, and testing new technologies such as AI dispatching, autonomous vehicles, and electric taxiing.

CAST Schedule is a comprehensive and flexible software tool for precise, scalable airport traffic and passenger demand forecasting, as well as flight schedule analysis and generation. It combines traditional forecasting methods with machine learning to calculate future traffic volumes based on individual flight events, supporting short-term, medium-term, and long-term forecasts for passengers, baggage, and cargo.

CAST Schedule enables both top-down and bottom-up forecasting, factoring in elements such as future events, regional development potential, and macroeconomic indicators, with a guided workflow for building realistic growth scenarios to support operational, tactical, and strategic planning.
