Indicator-Based Aircraft Database Enrichment for Pilot Decisions
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing aircraft databases are often insufficiently complete or overly complex, making it difficult for pilots to make informed decisions due to issues with data organization and quantity, leading to inefficiencies in decision-making.
Innovation Solution
A method and system that assesses an initial structured database using frequency, interconnection, relevance, and precision indicators to determine if it is sufficiently complete, and if not, sends commands to enrich the database with additional data, ensuring it is optimized for efficient use by pilots.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If the database contains more data to improve completeness, then the database becomes more complete, but the time needed to browse and analyze the data increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts and highlights only the most relevant information from the database based on pilot profiles and situational context. The system identifies key parameters and extracts pertinent data points, presenting them in a prioritized manner rather than displaying all available data, thus reducing browsing time while maintaining completeness of essential information.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent applies local quality by customizing the database presentation according to different pilot profiles, experience levels, and specific flight situations. Each pilot receives a tailored view of the data with different levels of detail and organization, ensuring that each user sees only the locally relevant information needed for their specific context.
2Reliability
If the database is enriched with more data and details, then the knowledge quality improves, but the complexity of the database organization increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the database into hierarchical levels and categories based on relevance to different flight situations and pilot profiles. Data is organized into modular segments that can be independently accessed and managed, reducing overall complexity while preserving the richness of the knowledge base through structured segmentation.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent implements dynamic organization of the database that adapts to different flight phases, pilot preferences, and situational requirements. The database structure dynamically reconfigures to present information in the most appropriate format for each context, managing complexity through adaptive reorganization rather than static rigid structures.
3Adaptability or versatility
If the database contains more data to cover all situations, then the appropriateness of response to each situation improves, but the amount of data becomes too high for the user to analyze in time
Solution Approach 1:
The patent performs preliminary actions by pre-processing and pre-organizing database content according to various flight scenarios and pilot profiles before actual use. The system anticipates potential situations and pre-configures the most relevant data structures and information hierarchies, so that when a situation arises, the appropriate information is already prepared and readily accessible, eliminating the need for time-consuming analysis during critical moments.

AI summary
The present invention relates to a method for enriching a structured database intended to assist a pilot of an aircraft in decision-making. The method comprises the following steps:obtaining an initial structured database, called the initial structured base, comprising a plurality of objects,determination of at least two indicators from the group of indicators consisting of: a frequency indicator, an interconnection indicator, a relevance indicator, and a precision indicator,comparison of each determined indicator with at least one respective threshold,if the result of the comparison is negative, sending an enrichment command of the initial structured database to form an enriched structured database, called enriched structured base, comprising a larger number of objects than the initial structured base.
