Airborne target tracking involves generating several different future positions from each individual flight path consisting of information for at least two aircraft positions

摘要

The method involves receiving aircraft position information at successive times, transforming it into a common coordinate system, displaying the information, forming at least one flight path, temporarily storing it and updating it by allocating new aircraft position information to individual flight paths. Various future positions are generated from each individual flight path consisting of information for at least two aircraft positions. The method involves receiving information about aircraft positions at successive times, transforming the information into a common coordinate system, displaying the position information, forming at least one flight path with position information, temporarily storing the flight path and updating the flight path by allocating new information about aircraft positions to individual flight paths. Several different future positions are generated from each individual flight path consisting of information for at least two aircraft positions. Independent claims are also included for the following: a computer program for implementing the method and a tracking system.
