Avid ™
What Is It?
Airspace Visual Display (Avid ™) uses
adaptation data and trajectory objects (from any source -
simulator, recorded live data, etc.) to allow for
visualization of air traffic at any time instant.
Avid ™ shows
selected layers of adaptation data (airspaces, airports, waypoints,
etc.), the two-dimensional trajectory representation and position
of the aircraft (the Target objects) at a selected time
instant. The "sim time" is selectable from the user interface, and
settable to any sim-to-real time ratio, so that the display will
emulate a real-time one.
The map scale and projection center, as well as the selection of
layers to show, are selectable at runtime via the
GUI.
Features
Avid ™ is a
cost effective and powerful situation display in its own right.
However, in addition to all the features you would expect in an
operational air traffic situation display, it provides advanced
features and flexibility for prototyping and researching advanced
concepts. Some of these include:
- Random access time navigation of trajectory data
- A geographically independent display that will handle any
location on earth of any size
- Software handles for function controlled data collection
- On-the-fly-selection of map projections
