Abstract: A method may include receiving, from a ground station and at an aircraft computing system onboard the aircraft, a definition of a primary route, the primary route representing a trajectory, for the aircraft, from an origin location to a destination location, causing the aircraft to autonomously traverse the primary route using a flight controller, the flight controller configured to automatically control a set of flight control surfaces of the aircraft, while autonomously traversing the primary route, receiving an input from an inceptor, automatically mapping a direction and magnitude of the input to a predetermined flight maneuver, computing a definition of a modified route, the modified route initiating the predetermined flight maneuver, validating the modified route, including determining whether the modified route intersects known obstacles, and in response to the validation succeeding, causing the aircraft to autonomously traverse the modified route using the flight controller.

Abstract: While an aircraft is in flight toward the desired landing site, the aircraft generates a navigation solution to land the aircraft at the landing site. The navigation solution is transmitted to an operator that is at a location remote from the aircraft. The operator reviews the navigation solution and provides a confirmation whether the navigation solution is accurate back to the aircraft.

Abstract: An aircraft receives pseudorange input from a plurality of satellites of an augmentation system. Each pseudorange input includes a precise position solution and error data. The aircraft receives a high frequency measurement from an inertial navigation system. The aircraft applies the precise position solution, error data, and high frequency measurement to a set of parallel Schmidt extended Kalman filters to produce a corrected position solution and integrity data. The aircraft applies the integrity data to a receiver autonomous integrity monitoring system to produce a protection level for the corrected position solution. The aircraft performs an aircraft operation using the corrected position solution and protection level.

Abstract: A system having components coupled to an aircraft in operation processes sensor-derived data, performs a localization cross-checking procedure, and dynamically generates updated analyses of the position and orientation of the aircraft. Based on the updated analyses, the system can generate instructions for flight control of the aircraft and can update flight control instructions as new data is received and processed. The system functions to reduce the “worst-case” bounds on a localization estimate for the aircraft to a low enough level that is appropriate for completing a flight operation.
