1. A method for automatically rendering a vehicle performance input to a vehicle operator resulting from a change in an original electronic itinerary for a vehicle, the method comprising the steps of:
- receiving an electronic message comprising electronic itinerary change information over a radio frequency data up-link;
creating a modified electronic itinerary from the original electronic itinerary and the electronic itinerary change information;
automatically comparing a modified vehicle performance parameter value calculated using the modified electronic itinerary to a value for the same performance parameter calculated using the original electronic itinerary to determine the vehicle performance input; and
textually rendering the vehicle performance input on a video display device for acceptance or rejection of the modified electronic itinerary.

Abstract
Provided are methods and systems for the automatic assessment and presentation of data on a display device that describes the operational impact on mission critical parameters resulting from a change in a vehicle'"'"'s mission plan. The change in mission plan may be inputted manually by the vehicle operator but may also be received electronically and automatically over a data up link from an outside authority.

10. A computer readable medium containing instructions that when executed by a computing device accomplish acts comprising:
-
receiving an electronic message comprising electronic itinerary change information over a radio frequency data up-link; creating a modified electronic itinerary from an original electronic itinerary by inserting the electronic itinerary change information into the original electronic itinerary; automatically comparing a modified vehicle performance parameter value calculated using the modified electronic itinerary from a value calculated for the same performance parameter using the original electronic itinerary to determine an impact of the of the electronic itinerary modification; and transmitting the impact of electronic itinerary modifications to a video display device wherein the impact is textually rendered to the vehicle operator for acceptance or rejection of the modified temporary electronic itinerary. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17)

18. A system for automatically rendering information to a vehicle operator resulting from a change in an electronic itinerary for a vehicle comprising:
-
a sensor; a data uplink unit; a video display device; and a processor in operable communication with the sensor, the data uplink unit and the video display device, wherein the processor is configured to; receive an electronic message comprising electronic itinerary change information via the data up-link; automatically compare vehicle performance parameters determined from the electronic itinerary change information and from an input from the sensor, and transmit an impact of electronic itinerary change information to the video display device wherein the impact of the electronic itinerary change information is textually rendered to the vehicle operator for acceptance or rejection of electronic itinerary change information. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20)
