A Guide for Advancing Weather-Resilient Infrastructure Investment in Airports

The objective of this research is to develop a guide that helps airport practitioners justify and prioritize investments related to weather-resilient infrastructure. The guide will utilize existing tools, technologies, and methodologies to validate and convey the financial benefits of developing or updating airport facilities to enhance their resilience against weather events. The guide will be supported with a WebResource for developing a business case, with interactive modules and a logical workflow.
