Abstract:
A method of operating an augmented reality processed terrain and obstacle threat scouting service is provided. The method includes using at least one sensor of a monitoring vehicle to monitor terrain and obstacle data. The monitored terrain and obstacle data is compared with terrain and obstacle data in a terrain and obstacle database. A non-validated georeferenced delta is determined when the comparison of the monitored terrain and obstacle data with terrain and obstacle data in the terrain and obstacle database finds non-matching terrain and obstacle data. The non-validated georeferenced delta is transmitted to a ground distribution center, consumer vehicle and/or cloud based server. Non-validated georeferenced delta received at a consumer vehicle is differentiated from other terrain and obstacle data on a synthetic vision display. Non-validated georeferenced delta received at a ground distribution center is validated against at least one other source and validated and non-validated is distributed to subscribing consumers.
