Software "СКАТ" has been developed with the use of advanced software production technologies and constructed on a modular principle, which allows its adaptation for flight data processing in newly developed flight data recorders of prospective aircraft systems. The built-in automated programming tools enable the operator to synthesize recorded parameters into designed ones by their own algorithms, thereby providing the secondary processing of any complexity.

The "СКАТ" software, combining high-speed performance and reliability, up-to-dare user interface and data protection, can be configured by selection of functional system modules, which meet the demands of a particular customer to process certain types of airborne flight data recorders and aircraft.

The “CKAT” main window

The “СКАТ” software allows for time synchronization of the processing results obtained in different types. While examining data processing results displayed in any form it is possible to browse the data in the following modes:

  • in direct and reverse directions;
  • in automatic mode-Start/Stop mode;
  • in single-step mode;
  • beginning from preset point of time.

Flight trajectory

Flight trajectory

Flight trajectory provides a means for representation of the processing results in the form of an aircraft movement trajectory with a possibility to make analysis from different viewing points and to change the picture scale. Flight trajectory is constructed in accordance with parameter values from flight information file. It is possible to display several flight trajectories simultaneously.
While examining data processing results displayed in the form of flight trajectory it is possible to use the following operations: 

  • setting of sighting point and target tracking mode;
  • map selection;
  • map layers image setup;
  • trajectory binding to a point on the map defined by user;
  • trajectory origin and end points stitching;
  • switching to 3-D aircraft attitude model;
  • alteration of processing time gap.

3D aircraft attitude model

3D aircraft attitude model

3D aircraft attitude model provides a means for representation of the processing results in the form of a dynamic three-dimensional image of aircraft with the indication of basic flight parameters (altitude, course, speed, pitch, and roll). Aircraft display image is formed in accordance with parameters values from the flight information file.

Graph

Graph

Graph provides a means for detailed review, analysis, and documenting with data output:

  • in a prescribed colour;
  • by means of dots or lines;
  • with markers or without markers;
  • with parameter labels or without parameter labels;
  • with arbitrary text in the graph field.

While examining data processing results in the form of graphs it is possible to use the following operations:

  • ranging;
  • displacement of active parameter graph;
  • dimensional scaling of active parameter display;
  • replacement of active parameter;
  • parameters attributes alteration;
  • graphs diversity.

 

Results of flight data processing can be formed in accordance with the parameters of the current or standard (formed earlier) task with corresponding output attributes.

Proximate analysis module

Proximate analysis module 

Proximate analysis module makes it possible to draw a conclusion on the technical condition of the aircraft, its systems and units, and also on flight crew actions during intervals between flights, following the algorithms from the Message Catalogues compiled by the aircraft designers. In order to acknowledge the events, revealed during the proximate analysis, “СКАТ” software allows for the reference information in the form of parameter graphs and “Reference-mode. Proximate analysis module provides processing of flight data recorded by more than one flight data recorders (BUR) involving unified database of the designed parameters.
