Trajectory Library

This library is built around the concept of trajectory,
encapsulating the motion of a point (aircraft) in a
three-dimensional space above the Earth sphere and in time. This
object can be constructed from a flight plan, flight history or
flight intent. A Trajectory does not include any
application or policy-specific information, although it provides
hooks to attach such information.
The library also includes en-route and procedural conflict
prediction with tools allowing to extend it to incorporate
virtually any application-dependent separation standards and
procedures.
The functionality of the Trajectory Library can
be summarized as follows:
- Provides classes to represent generic airspace and moving
objects in 4‑dimensional space, such as track, target, trajectory, zone,
etc.
- Numerical algorithms to solve kinematics problems, mainly
integrating the equations of motion and performing conflict probe
functions.
