Abstract:
Disclosed are methods, systems, and a non-transitory computer-readable medium for modifying a flight plan of a vehicle. The method may include identifying a maneuver of a flight path that will generate a focus boom, based on received flight path data and permissible threshold boom values for locations along a boom footprint of the maneuver, and generating an adjustment to at least one of a speed, an altitude, an attitude, a location, and a turn radius of the maneuver based on the received data and the permissible threshold boom values. In addition, the method may include updating the flight plan based on the generated adjustment to the at least one of the speed, the altitude, the attitude, the location, and the turn radius of the at least one maneuver.
