  1. 6. Improving Situational Awareness in Aviation: Robust Vision-Based Detection of Hazardous Objects

    University essay from Mälardalens högskola/Akademin för innovation, design och teknik

    Author : Alexandra Levin; Najda Vidimlic; [2020]
    Keywords : Object Detection; Custom Data Set; Faster RCNN; ResNet-50-FPN; Aviation; Situational Awareness;

    Abstract : Enhanced vision and object detection could be useful in the aviation domain in situations of bad weather or cluttered environments. In particular, enhanced vision and object detection could improve situational awareness and aid the pilot in environment interpretation and detection of hazardous objects. READ MORE

  3. 7. Towards Reliable Computer Vision in Aviation: An Evaluation of Sensor Fusion and Quality Assessment

    University essay from Mälardalens högskola/Akademin för innovation, design och teknik

    Author : Emil Björklund; Johan Hjorth; [2020]
    Keywords : Aviation; Image Fusion; Image Registration; Image Quality Assessment;

    Abstract : Research conducted in the aviation industry includes two major areas, increased safety and a reduction of the environmental footprint. This thesis investigates the possibilities of increased situational awareness with computer vision in avionics systems. READ MORE

  4. 8. Verification of HARMONIE-AROME, ECMWF-IFS and WRF: Visibility and Cloud Base Height

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Luft-, vatten- och landskapslära

    Author : Elin Kindlundh; [2020]
    Keywords : HARMONIE-AROME; ECMWF-IFS; WRF; verification; visibility; cloud base height; HARMONIE-AROME; ECMWF-IFS; WRF; verifikation; sikt; molnbashöjd;

    Abstract : Visibility and cloud base height are two important parameters within aviation meteorology and verification of operational numerical weather prediction (NWP) models with regard to these two parameters is therefore important. Visibility is often parameterized through an extinction coefficient, which is dependent on for example liquid or ice water content, however it also depends on the humidity, precipitation intensity and particle concentration.
