Proposal of a model for evaluation of operational safety at airports based on Borda and Promethee II methods

This study developed a model for the evaluation, control and improvement of airport safety by analyzing operational incidents. Considering the multidimensional feature of this evaluation, a model based on multicriteria Borda and Promethee methods was proposed. The operational incidents were used in the development of criteria and the weighting of each of them was carried out in proportion to the respective safety risk. Moreover, its application was performed at an airport in order to identify trends, diagnose problems and support action planning and provide a basis for allocating resources for prevention and mitigation of safety hazards. This application was used to analyze the validity of the model, and conclusions about their efficiency and applicability were obtained.
