Collision awareness using historical data for vehicles

Abstract

This disclosure is directed to methods, computer program products, and systems for providing surface vehicle tracking data, including indications of potential collision zones, to an airport map display system onboard an aircraft. In one example, a method includes identifying historical navigation route data, aerodrome guidance features, and a predicted path of a first vehicle. The method further includes determining predicted positions along the predicted path and determining predicted positions of a second vehicle and comparing vehicle envelopes for the two vehicles to determine a predicted collision zone of the vehicles.
