[0002] With the increasing frequency of extreme weather events, which have had a certain impact on society and the economy, people hope to achieve the goal of artificial weather intervention and better cope with meteorological disasters by conducting in-depth research on atmospheric physical processes and combining engineering technologies from multiple disciplines such as meteorology, physical chemistry, aeronautical science, and computer science. In order to achieve better results in weather modification operations, meteorological mission aircraft, with their real-time detection capabilities, powerful payload capacity, and stable and continuous operational capabilities, have gradually become a highly influential weather modification technology.

[0003] Meteorological mission aircraft typically comprise multiple complex systems, including detection subsystems, operational seeding subsystems, operational monitoring subsystems, air-to-ground communication subsystems, and integrated information subsystems. They carry various onboard equipment to adapt to different operational objectives. Therefore, this places higher demands on the integrated capabilities of airborne meteorological mission systems, particularly in areas such as integration and coordination, intelligent decision-making, mission scheduling, resource allocation, and conflict avoidance. Mission flights are generally completed collaboratively by multiple personnel. The airborne meteorological mission integrated system should be configured with different modes according to personnel responsibilities. This means supporting collaborative operation by multiple personnel, avoiding conflicts between different operators, and facilitating easy mode switching to adapt to dynamic adjustments in personnel responsibilities. Summary of the Invention
