System and method for robotic charging aircraft

A system for charging an aircraft comprising:

• one or more processors;
• and
• one or more non-transitory computer-readable media storing instructions that are executable by the one or more processors to cause the system to perform operations, the operations comprising:
• accessing itinerary data indicative of a duration of time an aircraft is scheduled to be located at a first aircraft landing facility and one or more subsequent destinations;
• computing, based on the itinerary data, a target charge state of the aircraft, the target charge state indicative of an amount of energy to be delivered to the aircraft at the first aircraft landing facility, wherein the target charge state provides a threshold travel distance to at least one subsequent destination of the one or more subsequent destinations;
• selecting, based on the itinerary data, the target charge state, and a threshold distance of the aircraft from other aircraft, a first charging device located at the first aircraft landing facility and a second charging device located at a second aircraft landing facility, wherein;
• the second aircraft landing facility is associated with the at least one subsequent destination;
• and
• the threshold distance of the aircraft is associated with a distance between the aircraft and the other aircraft located at the first aircraft landing facility and second landing facility;
• computing one or more charging parameters for the first charging device and the second charging device;
• and
• communicating one or more command instructions for the first charging device and the second charging device to charge the aircraft in accordance with the one or more charging parameters.
