Overview
[0059] Example embodiments disclosed herein address technical problems associated with managing and/or performing aviation missions. As would be understood by one skilled in the field to which this disclosure pertains, there are numerous example scenarios in which it may be desirable to manage and/or perform an aviation mission.
[0060] In many applications, systems, apparatuses, methods, and computer program products for managing and/or performing an aviation mission are desirable. For example, it may be desirable to use a remote aviation mission impact apparatus, a mobile aviation mission impact apparatus (e.g., an electronic flight bag), and/or an onboard aviation mission impact apparatus (e.g., a flight management system) for managing and/or performing an aviation mission associated with an aircraft. In this way, an aviation mission associated with an aircraft may be performed and/or managed in an efficient, reliable, and safe manner.
[0061] Example solutions for managing and/or performing an aviation mission include using a computing device to manage and perform the aviation mission. However, such example solutions are simplistic, resource intensive, and/or suffer from high latency. For example, such example solutions are simplistic because such example solutions are unable to transform aviation mission modification items into aviation mission impact items and automatically organize aviation mission impact items on an aviation mission impact interface component in accordance with a configuration type. As another example, such example solutions are resource intensive because such example solutions use inefficient computing techniques for managing and/or performing an aviation mission. As another example, such example solutions suffer from high latency because such example solutions are unable to efficiently leverage a remote aviation mission impact apparatus, a mobile aviation mission impact apparatus (e.g., an electronic flight bag), and/or an onboard aviation mission impact apparatus (e.g., a flight management system) for managing and/or performing an aviation mission associated with an aircraft. Accordingly, there is a need for systems, apparatuses, methods, and computer program products for managing and performing aviation missions in a sophisticated, low resource, and low latency manner.
[0062] Thus, to address these and/or other issues related to such example solutions, example systems, apparatuses, methods, and computer program products for determining aviation mission impacts are disclosed herein. For example, an embodiment, in this disclosure, described in greater detail below, includes a method that includes identifying aviation mission modification data representative of one or more aviation mission modification items. In some embodiments, the method includes generating aviation mission impact data by applying the aviation mission modification data to an aviation mission impact model. In some embodiments, the aviation mission impact data is representative of one or more aviation mission impact items. In some embodiments, the method includes generating an aviation mission impact interface component based on the aviation mission impact data. In some embodiments, the aviation mission impact interface component comprises the one or more aviation mission impact items. In some embodiments, the method includes causing the aviation mission impact interface component to be rendered to an aviation operations interface. Accordingly, the systems, apparatuses, methods, and computer program products disclosed herein enable performing and managing aviation missions in a sophisticated, low resource, and low latency manner.
