➲ Most collision risk analyses for the airport surface require aircraft extremity position estimates for fidelity ➲ Uncertainty in aircraft dimensions, heading, and reference point can all be significant contributors ➲ if surveillance information is translated to a display, additional errors must be taken into account ➲ For surface collision risk, metrics based on the minimum time to a potential loss of separation were effective if based on actual separation of extremity positions ➲ Aircraft geometry and dimensions affect the Low Closing Time (LCT) metric ➲ The well-behaved probability distribution of this metric suggests that extrapolation based on a model PDF could be used to quantify the probability of collision
