The “Turbulence Prediction and Route Optimization using Big Data” project focuses on developing a system that uses weather data, in-flight sensor data, and historical flight patterns to predict turbulence and optimize flight routes.
Integrating big data analytics and machine learning models will enhance passenger safety, minimize flight disruptions, and reduce fuel consumption.
Seven teams with distinct roles, collectively, ensure the successful delivery of the project.
The Chief Data Officer (CDO), Data Engineers, Data Scientists, Data Analysts, Software Developers, Cloud Architects, and Security Specialists form the project team.
The System Development Life Cycle (SDLC) framework adopted in the project breaks the project into distinct, manageable phases.
The Planning Phase includes identifying project objectives, defining scope, and conducting a feasibility study.
The Requirement Gathering and Analysis phase includes collaboration with stakeholders, identification of critical data sources, and ensuring compliance with aviation regulations.
The System Design phase includes high-level and detailed design, defining secure communication channels, and selecting cloud infrastructure.
The Development Phase includes the machine learning model development, real-time data integration pipeline building, and application interface development.
The Testing Phase includes unit, integration, and system testing, simulated real-world conditions, and security testing.
