Airplane ground location methods and systems are described. Airplane ground location methods and systems are described. In one embodiment, ground locations for one or more airplanes are electronically determined and a determination is made as to whether there is a likelihood of a runway incursion based on determined locations. In yet another embodiment, one or more airplanes have one or more transmitters that are configured to wirelessly communicate with one or more interrogators positioned about an airfield. The transmitters are configured to transmit, while its associated airplane is on the ground, wireless communication that can be used by a computer to ascertain locations of associated airplanes and determine, based on the locations, whether there is a likelihood of a runway incursion between airplanes that are also on the ground.
