A method for calculating intervisibility data in advance of its use for permitting a real time update of threat information. Threat intervisibility data corresponding to an area comprised of adjacent regions is calculated and stored. A region of concern is centered in the adjacent regions. As the location of an aircraft changes, threats move from an adjacent region to the region of concern. However, since the intervisibility data was calculated when the threat first appeared in the adjacent region, it is now available for other functions without further processing. Such other functions include providing it to a threat avoidance algorithms or for display within the aircraft.

Procédé de calcul anticipé de données de visibilité réciproque afin de permettre la mise à jour en temps réel d'informations concernant des menaces. Les données de visibilité réciproque vis-à-vis d'une menace correspondent à une zone composée de régions contiguës, et elles sont calculées et stockées. La région en question est centrée dans les régions contiguës. A mesure qu'un aéronef se déplace, les menaces passent d'une région contiguë à la région en question. Cependant, étant donné que les données de visibilité réciproque furent calculées lors de la première apparition de la menace dans la région contiguë, elles sont désormais disponibles sans autre traitement pour d'autres fonctions telles qu'un algorithme servant à éviter les menaces, ou une visualisation à l'intérieur de l'aéronef.
