Abstract
A method for assisting the navigation of an aircraft comprises: assembly by families of data by a processing unit of predetermined data and acquired data, including meteorological data, the families being predefined, each data value being associated with a time window of validity; formatting the data of the families to associate with each data value a type of graphical representation as text or a scalar, vector, surface, or volume; selection of families of data to be displayed; choice of a display time window for each family of data to be displayed; spatio-temporal discretization of the trajectory; spatio-temporal correlation of the discretized trajectory with each family of data as a function of the time windows of validity, in the display time windows of the family, to extract a sub-assembly from each family of data, by the processing unit; display of the sub-assemblies in a single representation on the same display screen.
