Abstract
Improved flight display systems and methods that selectively deemphasize terrain are provided. The method includes receiving and processing navigation reference point data, terrain data, and aircraft status data. Next, the method (a) renders on a display system, in real-time, a viewing segment defined as at least a navigation reference point for the aircraft, the viewing segment having terrain rendered in a first level of terrain contrast; and (b) determines that the aircraft is in a terrain deemphasis scenario when an altitude is certain low altitude operations. When the aircraft is in the terrain deemphasis scenario, the method deemphasizes terrain within a determined boundary in the viewing segment. Deemphasizing includes decreasing terrain contrast to a second level of terrain contrast within the boundary. Terrain contrast within the boundary is restored to the first level responsive to receiving a restore trigger.
