An operation management apparatus includes a surrounding environment estimating unit, an energy calculator, and a time changer. The surrounding environment estimating unit is configured to estimate a surrounding environment at a returning start time of a movable body. The energy calculator is configured to search, based on the surrounding environment, a returning route along which the movable body performs the returning, to a first position from a second position, that is started at the returning start time, and calculate an energy amount necessary for the returning. The time changer is configured to advance the returning start time by a predetermined time period until the energy amount reaches or falls below a predetermined value. The surrounding environment estimating unit and the energy calculator are configured to respectively perform the estimation of the surrounding environment and the calculation of the energy amount, each time the time changer changes the returning start time.

Operation management apparatus, operation management method, and non-transitory recording medium

Provided is an operation control apparatus of a movable body that carries out a task at a destination. The operation control apparatus includes a memory, an information acquiring unit, a cell dividing unit, a calculating unit, a determining unit, and a destination changing unit. The cell dividing unit divides map information into multiple cells that include a first cell including the destination, and a second cell. The calculating unit calculates an evaluation value related to a degree to which the task is impeded, of each of the multiple cells. The determining unit determines whether the evaluation value of the first cell is higher than a threshold. The evaluation value determined as higher, the destination changing unit changes the destination to a location in the second cell, the evaluation value of which is equal to or lower than the threshold and is minimal.

Operation control apparatus of movable body, method of controlling operation of movable body, and computer readable medium

A flight hindrance display apparatus includes circuitry. The circuitry is configured to acquire surrounding information of an aircraft. The surrounding information is related to a hindrance factor which is a possible flight hindrance to the aircraft. The circuitry is configured to determine a spatial range of the flight hindrance factor on a basis of the acquired surrounding information. The circuitry is configured to determine a flight hindrance cross-section that intersects a plane including a vector of a flight direction of the aircraft and is included in the determined spatial range of the flight hindrance factor. The circuitry is configured to cause a display unit to stereoscopically display an own position of the aircraft, the spatial range of the flight hindrance factor, and the flight hindrance cross-section.
