Aircraft engine graphical diagnostic tool

1. An aircraft engine graphical diagnostic tool for displaying three-dimensional data relating to an operational parameter of an aircraft engine, comprising:

a display screen configured to render:

an input element configured for obtaining a data value in a first data dimension of the three-dimensional data; and

a visualization element configured for graphically presenting a two-dimensional dataset from the three-dimensional data, the two-dimensional dataset having a second data dimension and a third data dimension of the three-dimensional data, the two-dimensional dataset associated with the data value in the first data dimension in the three-dimensional data.

2. The graphical diagnostic tool of claim 1 , wherein the display screen is configured to render a selection element configured to receive a selection input indicative of a section of the first data dimension from the first, second and third data dimensions.

3. The graphical diagnostic tool of claim 1 , wherein the display screen is configured to render a toggle element providing configuration options for the second and third dimensions and configured to receive a selection to alternate between first and second configurations of the first, second and third data dimensions.

4. The graphical diagnostic tool of claim 1 , wherein the display screen is configured to render at least one interactive increment element collocated with the input element for incrementing the data value for the first data dimension by a predetermined increment.

5. The graphical diagnostic tool of claim 1 , wherein the display screen is configured to render at least one reference marker configured to be interacted with to set the data value of the input element to a reference value.

6. The graphical diagnostic tool of claim 1 , comprising at least one marker defined within the visualization element, the at least one marker indicative of a reference value for one of the second and third data dimensions.

7. The graphical diagnostic tool of claim 1 , wherein the input element comprises a scrollable element defining a position along an axis, the position defining the data value.

8. The graphical diagnostic tool of claim 7 , wherein the scrollable element comprises a scroll bar.

9. The graphical diagnostic tool of claim 1 , wherein the first data dimension is a time dimension, wherein the second data dimension is a frequency dimension, and wherein the third data dimension is an amplitude dimension.

10. An electronic device for diagnosis of an aircraft engine, comprising:

a processing unit;

a display device for displaying three-dimensional data relating to an operational parameter of the aircraft engine, the display device communicatively coupled to the processing unit; and

a non-transitory computer-readable medium having stored thereon instructions executable by the processing unit for causing the processing unit to display, via the display device:

an input element configured for obtaining a data value in a first data dimension of the three-dimensional data; and

a visualization element configured for graphically presenting a two-dimensional dataset from the three-dimensional data, the two-dimensional dataset having a second data dimension and a third data dimension of the three-dimensional data, the two-dimensional dataset associated with the data value in the first data dimension in the three-dimensional data.

11. A method for operating an aircraft engine graphical diagnostic tool, comprising:

receiving three-dimensional data relating to an operational parameter of an aircraft engine;

obtaining, via an input element rendered on a display screen of the graphical diagnostic tool, a data input indicative of a data value in a first data dimension of the three-dimensional data;

obtaining a two-dimensional dataset from the three-dimensional data, the two-dimensional dataset having a second data dimension and a third data dimension of the three-dimensional data, the two-dimensional dataset being associated with the data value for the first data dimension; and

presenting the two-dimensional dataset for the second and third data dimensions via a visualization element rendered on the display screen of the graphical diagnostic tool.

12. The method of claim 11 , comprising obtaining, via a selection element of the graphical diagnostic tool, a selection input indicative of a selection of the first data dimension from the first, second and third data dimensions.

13. The method of claim 11 , comprising obtaining, via a toggle element of the graphical diagnostic tool, a toggle input indicative of a request to alternate between first and second configurations of the first, second and third data dimensions.

14. The method of claim 11 , comprising obtaining, via an increment element of the graphical diagnostic tool collocated with the input element, an increment input for incrementing the data value for the first data dimension via a predetermined increment.

15. The method of claim 11 , comprising obtaining, via a reference marker of the graphical diagnostic tool, a reference value input for setting the data value of the input element to a reference value.

16. The method of claim 11 , comprising presenting, as part of the visualization element, at least one marker indicative of a reference value for one of the second and third data dimensions.

17. The method of claim 11 , wherein obtaining, via the input element, the data input comprises obtaining a position along an axis from a scrollable element forming part of the input element, the position defining the data value.

18. The method of claim 17 , wherein the scrollable element comprises a scroll bar.
