Abstract
A particular method includes receiving aircraft state data associated with an aircraft at an air traffic control system. The aircraft state data includes a detected position of the aircraft, a velocity of the aircraft and an orientation of the aircraft. The method also includes predicting at least one future position of the aircraft based on the aircraft state data. The method further includes generating an alert in response to comparing the predicted future position to an air traffic navigation constraint assigned to the aircraft.
