Strataroute
We’ve all seen software that will get us home in our cars - most of us don’t leave home without a quick check of the route on an online mapping website. Doing it in the air, though, poses some unique challenges, and Strataroute meets them admirably.
We started with understanding how existing routing algorithms worked. We were surprised to find that even the best routing software on the market didn’t work very well. If you’re not sure what we mean, try finding a route in your favourite software between London and New York in an aircraft with a limited range that precludes a direct flight, and then go and make a cup of coffee whilst it figures it out - if it ever does.
We started with the data that avionics packages and the very best flight simulators and autopilots use. Checked by the world’s leading authorities, and updated to industry standards, we integrated the data into our custom framework. Our algorithms then work to find the best possible route for an individual aircraft’s performance envelope, by combining these data with the very best computer science can offer in routing algorithms.
All of this happens in a heartbeat, so that we can find the fastest aircraft routing for our customers - for them, and for the industry in general, it’s about time.
