    Abstract: Unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) systems are described that determine when to automatically transfer telemetry data from a UAV to a ground-based computing device by monitoring one or more context states of the UAV. In some examples, a UAV system includes a UAV; a ground-based computing device; and processing circuitry configured to acquire data from one or more sensors on the UAV; store the data at a local storage device on the UAV; maintain a state machine configured to monitor one or more context states of the UAV system; determine, based on the one or more context states, that a current situation of the UAV system meets minimum criteria for transferring the data from the UAV to the ground-based computing device; and automatically transfer, based on the determination, the data from the UAV to the ground-based computing device.

    Abstract: Techniques for generating flight operation recommendation for an aircraft are described. In operation, a flight safety hazard is detected on a flight path corresponding to a current flight operation of an aircraft. In response, the current flight operation is modified to generate a modified flight operation. A plurality of avionics parameters is then obtained from avionics systems available onboard the aircraft. A variation in the flight safety hazard is then detected based on at least one avionics parameter from the plurality of avionics parameters. Upon ascertaining the variation to be detrimental to the modified flight operation of the aircraft, the plurality of avionics parameters is analysed using a flight operation recommendation model to generate a plurality of flight operation recommendations. A flight operation recommendation from the plurality of flight operation recommendations is then applied to the modified flight operation.

    Abstract: A system for an aircraft configured to: provide one or more of the sensed aircraft characteristics to a flight planning tool for processing by one or more features of the flight planning tool; receive a recommended flight setting from the flight planning tool based on the processing by the flight planning tool; compare a current flight setting as determined based on the one or more sensed aircraft characteristics from the plurality of sensors with the received recommended flight setting; determine a potential operational efficiency based on the comparison between the received recommended flight setting and the current flight setting; and provide the potential operational efficiency to a user based on an identity of the user.

    Abstract: Techniques for optimizing flight safety operations for an aircraft are described. In operation, aircraft operational parameters corresponding to a plurality of flight operations are retrieved. The aircraft operational parameters are then analyzed using a first machine learning model to identify a first flight operation, where the first flight operation comprises at least one aircraft operational parameter with deviation beyond a threshold. At least one potential flight safety incident corresponding to the first flight operation is then identified using the at least one aircraft operational parameter. The at least one potential flight safety incident is then analyzed using a second machine learning model to identify a corrective action for the potential flight safety incident, where the second machine learning model is trained using flight safety artifacts comprising a plurality of flight safety incidents and corrective actions to be initiated in response to the plurality of flight safety incidents. The corrective action is then subjected to an avionics digital twin to ascertain that the corrective action mitigates the at least one potential flight safety incident. The corrective action is then recommended for the at least one potential flight safety incident.

    Abstract: Systems are provided for a system of an integrated suite of software applications platform for an aircraft. An applications layer of operational applications for a user that includes a safety application kit provides information about diversions, weather avoidance, and standard operating procedures (SOP) for the aircraft, an efficiency application kit that provides information about short-cuts to a flight plan, flight level advisories, and cost index advisories for the aircraft, an automation application kit that provides information about flight logs, technical logs, checklists, flight planning and flight summary for the aircraft, and a dispatcher application kit that provides information about re-routing advisories, wind status, flight dispatch and following traffic status for the aircraft. The system has a data access layer that provides access to relevant databases in support of the applications layer. The system has a platform services layer that provides analytical and security support for the applications platform.
