Domain Specific Ontology Enhancing Communication Accuracy in Airport Operation

Improved communication between pilots and ground control operator in aviation industry is one of the highest priority tasks in order to maintain safety at takeoff and landing. It has been observed that many accidents happen on these two critical events. One major cause of mistake is human related error or in other words un-recognized conversation between them. To improve the communication process we propose domain specific ontology based text support system. Although general purpose ontology is available but pilot and ground control operator communication is mission critical that requires high accuracy of understanding of conversation by text based guidance. In this paper we propose designing domain specific ontology to improve the accuracy of understanding. The domain specific ontology is designed using three different input sources and Natural Language Processing techniques. Our proposed solution not only improves accuracy but is economical also as it does not require any major hardware investment.
