Abstract

A method for aircraft flight path generation includes, at a computing system, receiving, for a plurality of waypoints in a geographic area, predicted aircraft noise levels for an aircraft at each waypoint of the plurality of waypoints, the predicted aircraft noise levels predicted based at least in part on a plurality of flight parameters for the aircraft. The predicted aircraft noise levels are input to a flight path prediction system configured to generate a candidate flight path for the aircraft through the geographic area based at least in part on the predicted aircraft noise levels. The candidate flight path is output from the flight path prediction system, wherein the candidate flight path is predicted to result in less ground-level noise when followed by the aircraft as compared to an alternate flight path through the geographic area.
