Abstract
A method of providing taxi time information for an airport includes receiving, at a computing system from a device, a request for taxi time information associated with an airport. The method includes determining, at the computing system based on aircraft location information data from a set of aircraft, taxi time information for the airport for a time window. The set of aircraft include aircraft that taxied at the airport within the time window. The time window is less than or equal to one day. The method also includes sending the taxi time information associated with the airport from the computing system to the device.
Claims20
A method of providing taxi time information for an airport, the method comprising:
- receiving, at a computing system from a device, a request for taxi time information associated with the airport;
- determining, at the computing system based on aircraft location information data from a set of aircraft, taxi time information for the airport for a time window, wherein the set of aircraft include aircraft that taxied at the airport within the time window and wherein the time window is less than or equal to one day;
- and
- sending the taxi time information associated with the airport from the computing system to the device.
A method of providing taxi time information for an airport, the method comprising:
- receiving, at a computing system from a first device, a first request for taxi out time information associated with a first airport;
- determining, at the computing system based on first aircraft location information data from a first set of aircraft that departed from the first airport within a first time window, taxi out time information for the first airport;
- and
- sending the taxi out time information to the first device responsive to the first request.
A computer-readable storage device comprising instructions, wherein the instructions are executable by one or more processors to:
- send a request for taxi time information to a computing system, wherein the request specifies an airport;
- receive the taxi time information for the airport from the computing system in response to the request;
- and
- send, to a display device, a first graphical display element that depicts a map of the airport, a second graphical display element that depicts average taxi time information based on the taxi time information for a set of aircraft that taxied at the airport during a time window, or both.
