Trajectory Clustering and an Application to Airspace Monitoring

Gariel, Maxime, Srivastava, Ashok N., Feron, Eric

Understand

This paper presents a framework aimed at monitoring the behavior of aircraft in a given airspace.

Nominal trajectories are determined and learned using data driven methods.
Standard procedures are used by air traffic controllers (ATC) to guide aircraft, ensure the safety of the airspace, and to maximize the runway occupancy.
Even though standard procedures are used by ATC, the control of the aircraft remains with the pilots, leading to a large variability in the flight patterns observed.
