Abstract

Method and apparatus for planning and modifying a vehicle operation plan. A vehicle operation plan for a vehicle schedule is determined based on performance constraints of the vehicle and an operational rule file that defines operational restrictions on the vehicle based on states of the vehicle. In the event a state changes from a planned state, the vehicle automatically and autonomously recalculates the vehicle operation plan in a manner that satisfies the performance constraints and the operational restrictions.
