1. A method of visually presenting aviation obstacles to an operator of an aircraft, the method comprising:
- receiving departure information associated with a runway having a departure end;
parsing the departure information to determine a presence of an obstacle associated with the runway;
determining a location of the obstacle relative to the departure end of the runway; and
displaying a graphical representation of the runway and a graphical representation of the obstacle in the location relative to the departure end of the runway.

11. A method of displaying a departure procedure for an aircraft departing from a runway having a departure end, the method comprising:
-
receiving departure information associated with the runway; parsing the departure information to determine a geographic location of the runway; parsing the departure information to determine a presence of an obstacle associated with the runway and a position of the obstacle relative to the departure end of the runway; and displaying a graphical representation of the runway and a graphical representation of the obstacle at the position relative to the departure end of the runway. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18)

19. A system for graphically displaying departure information for an aircraft departing from a runway having a departure end, the system comprising:
-
a display device adapted to present a graphical representation of a departure procedure for the aircraft; a storage device adapted to store the departure procedure; and a system controller coupled to the display device and to the storage device and adapted to receive the departure procedure and to parse the departure procedure to extract obstacle information from the departure procedure, the system controller further adapted to determine, from the obstacle information, a first position of an obstacle relative to the departure end of the runway and to operate the display device to present a graphical representation of the obstacle. - View Dependent Claims (20)
