Indiana Department of Transportation Office of Aviation Economic Impact Study
This 2022 study, conducted by the Indiana Department of Transportation Office of Aviation, assesses the comprehensive quantitative and qualitative economic impacts of Indiana's system of 69 aviation facilities. It meticulously measures economic contributions through employment, labor income, Gross Domestic Product (GDP), and total output, analyzing these across direct, indirect, and induced impact categories. The study's primary objective is to articulate the significant economic value generated by these facilities for local, regional, and state economies, based on 2019 activity data, and to highlight their role in facilitating commerce, attracting visitors, and generating substantial tax revenues.
