Manchester Airport is a busy place. Handling over 23 million travelers each year, it is important to maximize efficiency. Using Microsoft Azure, a research team is doing just that. With models designed on open source tools, the team is analyzing data from planes taxiing to untangle the delays and conflicts that slow travel. Utilizing the computing power of Azure will help this project reduce delays, reduce environmental impacts, and save money.
