An Automated Emergency Airport and Off-Airport Landing Site Selector
Résumé
We present a novel landing site selector capable of selecting suitable landing sites (airport and off-airport) for emergency landings. In a first step, information from several databases which includes, for instance, elevation data, is gathered by our system. Then, this information is processed in order to create a list of potential landing sites ranked according to several factors, such as the characteristics of the runway, the type of emergency or the current weather. A generic scenario and case studies have been defined in order to test the landing site selector, ultimately leading to a series of trajectories-generated with an emergency trajectory generator presented in previous publications-safely leading the aircraft to one of the landing sites chosen by our system.
