Closures on the airport access roads, every hour
Closures on the airport access roads, as an hourly passenger notice.
What it does
Every hour: road closures, roadworks and incidents within 10 km of the airport, and a passenger notice by xMap AI (which roads to avoid, when to leave), posted for the airport’s website and social team.
In one sentence: Every hour at :00, in Istanbul, find road closures, roadworks and other incidents, write a report with xMap AI, then send message to a channel in Slack and email the list to you.
Why it is useful
Passengers who miss flights because of traffic blame the airport. A notice each hour gets them there on time.
Who it is for
Airports, airlines & aviation. Airports, airlines, flight schools, maintenance and aviation services planning routes, partners and passengers’ journeys. Every use case for airports & aviation
Best use cases
- An airport’s passenger communications

The time it saves
Every hour at :00. Doing the same work by hand takes about 15 minutes each time; it runs about 720 times a month, so it saves about 40 hours a month (an estimate). It is easy: 6 blocks.
