Dynamic lateral deviation display
First Claim
1. A method of dynamically displaying lateral deviation in formats on a display, the method comprising:
- assigning one or more positional boundaries for displaying the lateral deviation information, wherein the one or more positional boundaries define areas on a display;
calculating display positions of a lateral deviation symbology;
determining if each calculated display position is allowed based on where the lateral deviation symbology would be located, if displayed at each calculated position, in relation to the one or more positional boundaries;
displaying the lateral deviation symbology at the calculated display positions when the calculated positions are allowed; and
displaying a lateral deviation indicator when the calculated positions are not allowed.

Abstract
A method of dynamically displaying lateral deviation in formats on a display is provided. The method comprises assigning one or more positional boundaries for displaying the lateral deviation information, wherein the one or more positional boundaries define areas on a display. The method also comprises calculating display positions of a lateral deviation symbology and determining if each calculated display position is allowed based on where the lateral deviation display would be located, if displayed at each calculated position, in relation to the one or more positional boundaries. The method further comprises, displaying the lateral deviation symbology at the calculated positions when the calculated positions are allowed, and displaying a lateral deviation indicator when the calculated positions are not allowed.

9. A graphic display system comprising:
-
one or more sensors for collecting craft lateral deviation data; a display element for displaying craft lateral deviation data; and at least one processor coupled to the one or more sensors and the display element for processing the lateral deviation data and sending signals to the display element to direct the display element in displaying the lateral deviation data, wherein the processor calculates display positions for a lateral deviation symbology, determines if each of the calculated display positions are allowed, and sends signals to the display element to display the lateral deviation symbology at the calculated display positions when the calculated display positions are allowed, and sends signals to the display element to display a lateral deviation indicator when the calculated display positions are not allowed. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16)
