Abstract
An automatic, autonomous predictive aircraft surface state event track (ASSET) system, includes a mobile device onboard an aircraft and a remote service in communication with the mobile device. The mobile device includes a processor, and an application that in turn includes machine instructions encoded on a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium. The processor executes the machine instructions to receive sensor data from aircraft onboard sensors, the sensor data indicating an operational state of the aircraft; and transmit the sensor data. The remote service receives the sensor data and includes a remote processor that executes machine instructions to compute an operational state of the aircraft; identify an aircraft event associated the aircraft; and using the aircraft operational data, the sensor data, and the event, predict that the aircraft will meet a next scheduled aircraft event within a specified time window.
