Abstract The primary objective of the FogEye Evaluation Program is to determine whether coupled ultra-violet sources and detectors may provide enhancements to safety on the airport surface. The results of this effort will be used to complete the evaluation of the basic concepts of FogEye and assist in the design of future operational application. The evaluation examined the sensors repackaged as taxiway lights and configured on two taxiways on Providence International Airport (PVD). With the assistance of Rhode Island Airport Commissioners (RIAC) adn FAA two sites were selected on the airfield that was deemded high traffic areas.
