Abstract: A method and apparatus for routing a vessel from a start point to an end point. Routes are generated from the start point to the end point based on a number of objectives. A group of waypoints is added between the two waypoints with respect to the region of interest in response to a segment between two waypoints in a route in the routes crossing a region of interest.

Abstract: A computer implemented method, apparatus, and computer usable program code for generating a route for a vessel to travel from a start point to an end point. A start point and an end point for the vessel are identified. A forecast of wave conditions during a period of time is obtained. A model of the vessel is obtained, wherein the model includes parameters used to calculate a response of the vessel to the wave conditions. A route is generated from the start point to the end point for the vessel to travel on using the model of the vessel and the forecast of the wave conditions, wherein the route avoids conditions that may cause a treacherous environment and meets a set of goals.

Abstract: Embodiments provide systems, methods, and computer program products for optimizing cruise altitudes for multiple aircraft. The embodiments may be used for optimizing cruise altitudes of multiple aircraft on multiple flight paths and/or system capacity by an operator and/or an air navigation service provider. According to exemplary embodiments, a first set of optimum initial cruise altitudes are established for a plurality of aircraft. Weather conditions at the first set of optimum initial cruise altitudes are accounted for to establish a second set of optimum initial cruise altitudes. Direction of flight at the second set of optimum initial cruise altitudes is accounted for to establish a third set of optimum initial cruise altitudes. Any conflicts between aircraft at the third set of optimum initial cruise altitudes are detected. When a conflict is detected, the conflict is resolved to establish a fourth set of optimum initial cruise altitudes.

Abstract: A system, method and user terminal are provided to facilitate common situational awareness including, for example, awareness of evacuation and emergency vehicle routes. The system includes a plurality of user terminals in communication with a computing device, such as one or more servers. Each user terminal may include a processor and an associated display. The user terminals are configured to receive the evacuation routes and/or the routes for the emergency vehicles, as well as optionally other information regarding the underlying situation, from the computing device for display thereat. The user terminals may provide a field incident report to a computing device that provides the user terminals with information regarding the emergency situation.

Abstract: A system for managing unscheduled maintenance and repair decisions may include a maintenance swap options prioritizer. The maintenance swap options prioritizer may include a data access and transformation module to find and assemble information from different sources for computing performance data and generating a list of prioritized swap options. The maintenance swap options prioritizer may also include an options selection module to generate the list of prioritized swap options based on the information found and assembled by the data access and transformation module and based on any user preferences. The maintenance swap options prioritizer may also include means to present the performance data and list of prioritized swap options to at least one user. The maintenance swap options prioritizer may further include means to permit collaborative decision making and planning by multiple users to manage shared maintenance and repair resources.

Abstract: A GIS-based system that determines evacuation routes for specific areas requiring evacuation. Evacuation and safe areas are determined, and evacuation routes plotted, based on emergency-specific information as well as road flow and estimated time of travel for each section of road between the evacuation area and safe area. Routes, evacuation areas, and safe areas are dynamically calculated and recalculated based on additional data, either real-time, historical, or other data added to the system, to compute optimal initial routes and redirect evacuees if changes in the emergency situation occur.
