Abstract: A device for flight data prediction includes a memory, a communication interface, and one or more processors. The memory is configured to store a departure airport map. The communication interface is configured to receive location data for a plurality of aircraft expected to arrive at or depart from a departure airport during a particular time range. The one or more processors are configured to predict, based on the location data and the departure airport map, a taxi duration or a fuel usage of a first aircraft of the plurality of aircraft. The one or more processors are also configured to generate an output based on the taxi duration or the fuel usage.

Abstract: A parking stand prediction system uses statistical analysis and historical data to provide an available parking stand for an aircraft at an arrival airport. The system receives real-time surveillance data relating to airlines, on-air flights, and airline and airport ground services. The surveillance data is sorted or pre-filtered according to airport. The system also receives airport map or layout data. Parking stand identification logic is applied to the surveillance data, airport map data, and historical surveillance data. Portions of this data are stored in a parking stand database which is continuously updated with current surveillance and parking stand availability data. A user inputs parking stand search parameter data into the system and receives a parking stand prediction for the aircraft of interest at an arrival airport.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a computer-implemented method of generating a description of aircraft intent expressed in a formal language that provides an unambiguous description of an aircraft's intended motion and configuration during a period of flight. A description of flight intent is parsed to provide instances of flight intent, each instance of flight intent spanning a flight segment. For each flight segment, an associated flight segment description is generated that comprises one or more instances of flight intent that describe the aircraft's motion in at least one degree of freedom of motion. Flight segment descriptions are compared with constraints and/or objectives and the associated flight segment descriptions are enriched with information describing relevant constraints and/or objectives. The enriched flight intent is converted into aircraft intent by ensuring that the flight segment descriptions close all degrees of freedom of the aircraft during the period of flight.

Abstract: A method includes generating an initial flight context that includes a set of unresolved flight constraints. The method further includes generating a decision tree based on the initial flight context. The decision tree includes a plurality of flight contexts corresponding to leaves of the decision tree. The method also includes expanding the decision tree according to a greedy best-first strategy that selects a flight context of the decision tree for expansion based on a fitness value assigned to the flight context. The method includes selecting, as a piloting strategy, a flight context of the decision tree that includes a sequence of actions to resolve each of the unresolved flight constraints. The method further includes flying an aircraft according to the piloting strategy.

Abstract: The present invention provides a computer-implemented method of generating an aircraft intent description expressed in a formal language that provides an unambiguous four-dimensional description of an aircraft's intended motion and configuration during a period of flight. A flight intent description is parsed to provide instances of flight intent that span a flight segment, the flight segments together spanning the period of flight. The parsed flight intent is enriched with objectives and constraints according to user preferences, operational context and aircraft performance. The resulting enriched flight intent is converted into a parametric aircraft intent description by ensuring that each flight segment closes all associated degrees of freedom of motion and of configuration of the aircraft. At least some instances of aircraft intent contain a parameter range, and the method further comprises optimizing the parametric aircraft intent by determining an optimal value for the parameter of each parameter range.
