摘要: A system may include a computer readable medium and a processor communicatively coupled to the computer readable medium. The processor may be configured to: obtain a graphical image file, the graphical image file including an image, wherein the image includes a portion including textual characters, wherein each textual character of the textual characters is formed of line segments; and convert the graphical image file to at least one file including hardware directives that when executed cause a recreation of the image of the graphical image file to be drawn, wherein a size of the at least one file is smaller than the graphical image file.

摘要: An aircraft-based or vehicle-based system and method for enhancing situational awareness via a display system for displaying map-based charts (e.g., terminal charts, enroute charts, avionics charts) displays an active map-based chart (specifically an active panel of the map-based chart) and superimposes over the displayed active panel a panel selector display, e.g., a thumbnail display of the active enroute chart with a subset of the information provided by the enroute chart and divided into its component panels. The panel selector display highlights the currently displayed active panel and provides an ownship indicator showing the approximate position of the aircraft or vehicle relative to the currently active enroute chart.

摘要: A flight chart conversion system is disclosed. A host computing device is configured to: convert flight chart file(s) to SVG flight chart file(s) defined in XML; preprocess each of the SVG flight chart file(s) by removing filled shapes overlapping navigational paths, detecting font characters, and replacing the font characters with font character references; convert the SVG flight chart file(s) to flight chart(s) defined in set(s) of aircraft display hardware directives; compress each of the flight chart(s) and the respective metadata; and combine the flight chart(s) and the respective metadata into a flight chart database.

摘要: A method is disclosed. The method may include receiving chart data; converting the received chart data into one or more sets of hardware directives and one or more subroutines, the one or more sets of one or more hardware directives including at least a first set hardware directives and a second set of hardware directives, the first set of hardware directives including one or more relative offsets needing address modification, the second set of hardware directives not needing address modification; generating a display list including the set of hardware directives and one or more rules, the one or more relative offsets needing address modification arranged at a beginning position in the generated display list; providing the generated display list to an on-board aircraft controller; and updating, via the on-board aircraft controller, the one or more absolute addresses of the relative offsets of the first set of hardware directives during run-time.

摘要: A system may include a computer readable medium and a processor communicatively coupled to the computer readable medium. The processor may be configured to: obtain a graphical image file, the graphical image file including an image, wherein the image includes at least one sequence of repeating pattern elements, each of the at least one sequence including the repeating pattern elements that are repeated along a linear direction; and convert the graphical image file to at least one file including hardware directives that when executed cause a recreation of the image of the graphical image file to be drawn, wherein a file size of the at least one file is smaller than the graphical image file.

摘要: A system and method for flight chart font character scaling is disclosed. A host computing device is configured to: detect a font character size of a font character in a flight chart file, associate a threshold zoom level with the font character based on the respective font character size, and convert the flight chart file to aircraft display hardware directives. An aircraft display is configured to display a flight chart using the aircraft display hardware directives. An aircraft computing device is configured to detect a current zoom level of the aircraft display, compare the current zoom level to the threshold zoom level, set a drawing mode of a font character reference as a stroked mode or a filled mode, and present a referenced character as a filled character or a stroked character based on the drawing mode.

摘要: A method for generating thumbnails is disclosed. The method may include receiving an area map, and chart data having a geographical information set. The method may include generating a plurality of panels having one or more panel corners based on the chart data. The method may include projecting the one or more panel corners onto the area map, defining one or more corners of a plurality of areas to be extracted. The method may include determining an extraction mapping for each area to be extracted, the extraction mapping configured to map the plurality of areas to be extracted to a plurality of thumbnail panels. The method may include extracting area map data from each area to be extracted to generate a plurality of thumbnail panels using the determined extraction mapping. The method may include generating a thumbnail display by combining each thumbnail panel of the plurality of thumbnail panels.

摘要: An aircraft-based display system providing a graphical user interface (GUI) for display of terminal charts further displays an enroute selector for engagement to select and display enroute charts. Engagement with the enroute selector brings up an enroute menu for selecting for display enroute charts associated with the ownship position or previously selected enroute charts; selection of an enroute chart 1) makes the selected chart the new active enroute chart and 2) displays the enroute chart. Each chart in the enroute menu includes a play button; engagement with the play button brings up an enroute selector GUI allowing selection of an enroute region and chart type. The enroute selector GUI displays all available enroute charts for a selected region and chart type, allowing the selection and display of the desired enroute chart in graphical as well as textual format.
