Abstract
An approach is provided for mobile transportation platform data capture. The approach, for instance, involves collecting through electronic means, a comprehensive aggregation of technical computing data, communications data, control systems data, systems configuration data, and network data on mobile transportation platforms (e.g., aircraft, automobiles, trains, ships, etc.) and the ecosystems they operate in. This would create a single comprehensive, searchable, repository of technical data for a specific, mobile platform event stamped for time and/or location.
Claims24
A computer-implemented method comprising:
- designating, by a processor, an ecosystem including a mobile transportation platform, wherein the ecosystem is an environment delineated by a perimeter that encompasses an inside and outside of the mobile transportation platform and one or more systems, one or more devices, one or more networks, one or more signals or a combination thereof located outside the mobile transportation platform and in the perimeter of the ecosystem;
- collecting technical configuration data characterizing one or more technical properties of the one or more systems, the one or more devices, the one or more networks, the one or more signals, or the combination thereof located in the ecosystem at a data collection time;
- aggregating the technical configuration data as a technical fingerprint data record;
- determining geolocation data for the one or more systems, the one or more devices, the one or more networks, the one or more signals, or a combination thereof located in the ecosystem at the data collection time;
- and
- tagging the technical fingerprint data record with the data collection time, the geolocation data, or a combination thereof,
- wherein the tagged technical fingerprint data represents a technical configuration of the ecosystem as a whole at a time corresponding to the data collection time, and
- wherein the technical configuration data comprises a firmware version, operating system patch status, and operating system versions of the devices located in the ecosystem at the data collection time.
5 more elements
An apparatus comprising:
- at least one processor;
- and
- at least one memory including computer program code for one or more programs,
- the at least one memory and the computer program code configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus to perform at least the following,
- designate an ecosystem including a mobile transportation platform, wherein the ecosystem is an environment delineated by a perimeter that encompasses an inside and outside of the mobile transportation platform and one or more systems, one or more devices, one or more networks, one or more signals or a combination thereof located outside the mobile transportation platform and in the perimeter of the ecosystem;
- collect technical configuration data characterizing one or more technical properties of the one or more systems, the one or more devices, the one or more networks, the one or more signals, or the combination thereof located in the ecosystem at a data collection time;
- aggregate the technical configuration data as a technical fingerprint data record;
- determine geolocation data for the one or more systems, the one or more devices, the one or more networks, the one or more signals, or a combination thereof located in the ecosystem at the data collection time;
- and
- tag the technical fingerprint data record with the data collection time, the geolocation data, or a combination thereof,
- wherein the tagged technical fingerprint data represents a technical configuration of the ecosystem as a whole at a time corresponding to the data collection time, and
- wherein the technical configuration data comprises a firmware version, operating system patch status, and operating system versions of the devices located in the ecosystem at the data collection time.
9 more elements
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium carrying one or more sequences of one or more instructions which, when executed by one or more processors, cause an apparatus to perform:
- designating an ecosystem including a mobile transportation platform, wherein the ecosystem is an environment delineated by a perimeter that encompasses an inside and outside of the mobile transportation platform and one or more systems, one or more devices, one or more networks, one or more signals or a combination thereof located outside the mobile transportation platform and in the perimeter of the ecosystem;
- collecting technical configuration data characterizing one or more technical properties of the one or more systems, the one or more devices, the one or more networks, the one or more signals, or the combination thereof located in the ecosystem at a data collection time;
- aggregating the technical configuration data as a technical fingerprint data record;
- determining geolocation data for the one or more systems, the one or more devices, the one or more networks, the one or more signals, or a combination thereof located in the ecosystem at the data collection time;
- and
- tagging the technical fingerprint data record with the data collection time, the geolocation data, or a combination thereof,
- wherein the tagged technical fingerprint data represents a technical configuration of the ecosystem as a whole at a time corresponding to the data collection time, and
- wherein the technical configuration data comprises a firmware version, operating system patch status, and operating system versions of the devices located in the ecosystem at the data collection time.
