Selective NOTAM Notification
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method for selectively providing Notice To Airmen (NOTAM) notifications to a crew of an aircraft, the computer-implemented method comprising:
- receiving a plurality of NOTAMs;
determining a target phase of flight associated with the aircraft;
determining a relevance for each of the plurality of NOTAMs according to the target phase of flight; and
providing a notification of one or more NOTAMs according to the relevance for the target phase of flight.

Abstract
Methods, systems, and computer-readable storage media provide for selective Notice to Airmen (NOTAM) notifications to be made to the crew of an aircraft according to the relevance of the NOTAM to a selected phase of flight of the aircraft. According to embodiments described herein, NOTAMs are received and parsed for subject and status codes. The subject and status codes are used with the selected phase of flight to determine a relevance code each NOTAM according to a set of relevance rules. The relevance rules provide a level of relevance of the NOTAM to the phase of flight and trigger a type of notification according to that level of relevance.

10. A NOTAM notification computer system, comprising:
-
a NOTAM notification processor; a memory communicatively coupled to the NOTAM notification processor; and a NOTAM notification application (i) which executes in the NOTAM notification processor and (ii) which, when executed by the NOTAM notification processor, causes the NOTAM notification computer system to provide relevant NOTAMs to a crew of an aircraft according to a target phase of flight by receiving a plurality of NOTAMs, determining a target phase of flight associated with the aircraft, retrieving relevance rules, the relevance rules comprising a relevance code for each of a plurality of NOTAM subject codes for each of a plurality of phases of flight, determining a relevance for each of the plurality of NOTAMs according to the relevance rules and target phase of flight, and providing a notification of one or more NOTAMs according to the relevance for the target phase of flight. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16)

17. A computer-readable storage medium having computer-executable instructions stored thereupon which, when executed by a computer, cause the computer to:
-
receive a NOTAM; determine a target phase of flight associated with the aircraft; determine a relevance for the NOTAM according to a subject of the NOTAM and according to the target phase of flight; determine a status of the NOTAM; determine an updated relevance according to the status of the NOTAM; determine a notification method according to the updated relevance; and provide a notification of the NOTAM according to the notification method. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20)
