Automated data parsing and conversion for efficient visualizations
The present disclosure provides techniques for efficient data parsing and conversion for enhanced visualization. Notice data indicating an airspace status relating to one or more flight operations is accessed, and the notice data is parsed based on a plurality of defined formats to identify one or more locations indicated in the notice data, where each respective defined format of the plurality of defined formats indicates how locations are structured in a respective type of notice data. One or more sets of geographical coordinates are generated for the one or more locations based at least in part on the plurality of defined formats. A map of a geographic region, comprising one or more points at the generated one or more sets of geographical coordinates, is output via a graphical user interface.

Automated environment for aeronautical information services
An automated environment for aeronautical information services includes converting a first data set from a first data structure to a common data structure, automatically creating a common database based at least on the common data structure, converting a second data set from a second data structure to the common data structure, analyzing a difference between the first converted data set and the second converted data set to determine a relevance metric, and, if the relevance metric meets a relevance threshold, storing at least a portion of the second converted data set at a filtered database, the filtered database separate from the common database, wherein the portion is associated with the difference.

Systems and methods for implementing automated flight following options and upgrading legacy flight management systems
This disclosure relates to improved techniques for upgrading legacy flight management systems (FMSs) installed in an aircraft. In certain embodiments, an integrated guidance system (IGS) can be installed in an aircraft having a legacy FMS to provide enhance flight functionalities, such as required navigation performance (RNP), localizer performance with vertical guidance (LPV), and automatic dependent surveillance-broadcast (ADS-B), capabilities. Additionally, the IGS described can include, inter alia, a navigator system that receives and processes information from an ADS-B system to implement a variety of automated following options, each of which can provide an automated mechanism for controlling a flight path of the aircraft relative to another aircraft that is being tracked by an ADS-B system.

Contrail suppression
A method of contrail suppression. Data is generated with a sensing system onboard a first aircraft during a flight of the first aircraft. The data includes atmospheric information indicative of an atmospheric condition and/or contrail information indicative of a presence or absence of contrails generated by the first aircraft. A second aircraft is operated to perform one or more contrail suppression measures on a basis of the data.

Stopping indicator system on three-dimensional vehicle display
A method of displaying a preferred stopping distance comprising: receiving a current location of an vehicle relative to a landing pad; calculating a deceleration of a lower bound of the preferred stopping distance symbol; calculating a deceleration of a upper bound of the preferred stopping distance symbol; calculating a predicted stopping ground location of the upper bound and lower bound; and displaying the preferred stopping distance symbol on a graphic user interface. A stopping indicator system on a three-dimensional display includes a flight path vector symbol, a landing pad symbol, a waypoint symbol positioned at some altitude above the landing pad symbol, a nearest predicted stopping symbol, a preferred stopping distance symbol, and a predicted stopping location symbol.
