Abstract: Method, system, apparatus, and computer program product for displaying weather data on a computer display screen. Weather data for use in a flight of an aircraft is received. The weather data is updated at a first rate. The weather data is separated into weather data layers for a plurality of ranges of altitude. Each weather data layer corresponds to a respective one of the plurality of ranges of altitude, and the weather data is separated at the first rate. Embodiments monitor for a selection of at least one of the weather data layers. The monitoring is performed periodically at a second rate, and the second rate is faster than the first rate. Weather data in the selected at least one of the weather data layers is prepared for display and the weather data is output for display on a display screen in the aircraft.

Abstract: Method, system, apparatus, and computer program product for displaying weather data on a computer display screen. Received weather data can be parsed into weather data layers, based on ranges of altitude. The weather data can be separated into different weather products. A pilot can select products and altitude ranges for weather data to be displayed. Additional products and altitude ranges can be suggested to pilots based on detected weather hazards located outside of the pilot-selected products and altitude range. Additional products and altitude ranges can be automatically displayed on the display screen for severe weather hazards. A flight plan for the aircraft can be automatically recalculated to avoid a weather hazard. Parsing of the weather data can be performed at a first rate commensurate with a rate at which the weather data is received. Further processing based on pilot selections can occur at a second faster rate.
