An Evaluation of Airport Pavement Management System (APMS) Application In Kuching International Airport

As the volume of air traffic continues to grow, movements of aircraft on airport pavement will inevitably increase. To cope with such growth it is necessary to make optimal use of all available pavement’s resources. By carrying out proper maintenance at proper times, airport operator will be able to...
