Abstract
A method includes determining data indicating velocity uncertainty, relative position uncertainty, or both, associated with an aircraft and a navigation hazard. The method also includes determining a set of bounding vectors based on the data and determining a plurality of candidate intersection points that together correspond to circular or spherical regions defined by the set of bounding vectors. The method also includes identifying a region of interest based on a projected intersection of the aircraft or the navigation hazard with a candidate intersection point and generating a situational awareness display based on the region of interest.
