Systems and methods for location-based discrimination of turbulence

摘要

Systems and methods differentiate weather, such as storm cells and/or turbulence regions, based on location relative to a planned flight path (102) of an aircraft (104). An exemplary embodiment compares a location of the weather with a location of a region of space corresponding to the planned flight path (102) of the aircraft (104). In response to the location of the weather region being outside of the region of space, an icon is presented on a display corresponding to the weather using a first icon format. In response to location of the weather being within the region of space, the icon corresponding to the weather is presented on the display using a second icon format, the second icon format different from the first icon format.
