Abstract

An air traffic control support system for more quickly grasping a flight plan in air traffic control is provided. An air traffic control support system 3 includes a learning unit 100 and a prediction unit 200 . The learning unit 100 generates a prediction model, based on learning data including a past flight plan and information that affected formulation of the past flight plan. The prediction unit 200 predicts a flight plan, based on information that affects formulation of the flight plan and a prediction model.

Claims (35)

1. An air traffic control support system comprising:

a memory storing instructions; and

one or more processors configured to execute the instructions to:

generate a prediction model, based on learning data including a past flight plan and information that affected formulation of the past flight plan; and

predict a flight plan, based on information affecting formulation of the flight plan and the prediction model;

cause display means to display a prediction result of the flight plan and a degree of contribution indicating a degree that information affecting formulation of the flight plan affects the prediction result;

calculate a predicted traffic volume being a prediction value of a planned traffic volume for an airspace in a time zone, based on prediction results of a plurality of the flight plans; and

cause the display means to display the predicted traffic volume,

wherein the airspace comprises a space above a subarea in a plurality of subareas into which an area is divided.

2. The air traffic control support system according to claim 1 , wherein the one or more processors are further configured to execute the instructions to:

cause the display means to display the predicted traffic volume for each time zone and each airspace;

accept an operation of designating a time zone and an airspace; and

cause the display means to display a prediction result of the flight plan specified based on the designated time zone and airspace, and the degree of contribution to the prediction result.

3. The air traffic control support system according to claim 1 , wherein the one or more processors are further configured to execute the instructions to:

cause the display means to display the predicted traffic volume for each time zone and each airspace;

accept an operation of designating a time zone and an airspace;

calculate, based on prediction results of a plurality of the flight plans specified based on the designated time zone and airspace, a statistic of the degree of contribution to prediction results of the plurality of the flight plans; and

cause the display means to display a statistic of the degree of contribution.

4. The air traffic control support system according to claim 3 , wherein the one or more processors are further configured to execute the instructions to:

accept an operation of designating a statistic; and

cause the display means to display a prediction result of the flight plan specified based on the designated statistic, and the degree of contribution to the prediction result.

5. An air traffic control support method comprising:

generating a prediction model, based on learning data including a past flight plan and information that affected formulation of the past flight plan; and

predicting a flight plan, based on information affecting formulation of the flight plan and the prediction model;

causing display means to display a prediction result of the flight plan and a degree of contribution indicating a degree that information affecting formulation of the flight plan affects the prediction result;

calculating a predicted traffic volume being a prediction value of a planned traffic volume for an airspace in a time zone, based on prediction results of a plurality of the flight plans; and

causing the display means to display the predicted traffic volume,

wherein the airspace comprises a space above a subarea in a plurality of subareas into which an area is divided.

6. A non-transitory computer readable recording medium recording thereon a program causing a computer to perform a method comprising:

generating a prediction model, based on learning data including a past flight plan and information that affected formulation of the past flight plan; and

predicting a flight plan, based on information affecting formulation of the flight plan and the prediction model;

causing display means to display a prediction result of the flight plan and a degree of contribution indicating a degree that information affecting formulation of the flight plan affects the prediction result;

calculating a predicted traffic volume being a prediction value of a planned traffic volume for an airspace in a time zone, based on prediction results of a plurality of the flight plans; and

causing the display means to display the predicted traffic volume,

wherein the airspace comprises a space above a subarea in a plurality of subareas into which an area is divided.
