Apparatuses, computer-implemented methods, and computer program products for clear air turbulence detection

Abstract

Embodiments of the disclosure provide for clear air turbulence (CAT) detection. In the context of a method, the method includes receiving, from a vehicle, biometric data for at least one subject aboard the vehicle, wherein the biometric data meets a biometric abnormality threshold; applying a first weight value to a first subset of the biometric data determined to correspond to a passenger aboard the vehicle; applying a second weight value to a second subset of the biometric data determined to correspond to a crewmember aboard the vehicle, wherein the first weight value represents a greater impact value than the second weight value; determining the vehicle has encountered a monitored vehicle event representing CAT based at least in part on the first and second weight values; generating a predicted event location based on vehicle data associated with the vehicle; and providing the predicted event location to an additional vehicle.
