Claim Text:
1. A computer-implemented method for executing a path of air travel through a three dimensional travel region having at least two travel hazards each having varying degrees of intensity, said method comprising the steps of: receiving, via one or more processors, data relating to each of said at least two travel hazards, said at least two travel hazards comprising a first hazard of a first hazard type and a second hazard of a second hazard type, and said data comprising first hazard data indicative of a deterministic intensity of the first hazard and second hazard data indicative of a deterministic intensity of the second hazard; converting, via the one or more processors, each of said first hazard data and said second hazard data to fit to an atmospheric state intensity scale defined by a plurality of deterministic intensity values common across the first hazard type and the second hazard type, such that said first hazard data is indicative of the deterministic intensity of said first hazard along said atmospheric state intensity scale, and such that said second hazard data is indicative of the deterministic intensity of said second hazard along said atmospheric state intensity scale, wherein a first value of said plurality of deterministic intensity values is indicative of the deterministic intensity of said first hazard and a second value of said plurality of deterministic intensity values is indicative of the deterministic intensity of said second hazard determined based at least in part on a deterministic model; and generating, via a display device in communication with the one or more processors, a graphical display indicative, in a uniform and integral fashion, of: (1) the path of air travel through the three dimensional travel region, (2) the deterministic intensity of said first hazard along said atmospheric state intensity scale, (3) the deterministic intensity of said second hazard along said atmospheric state intensity scale, and (4) the location of the live reports.
