Abstract

To realize flight-test data visualization of aircraft's flight course to solve the difficulty that whether the flight-test data meet the need of flight-test outline. Aircraft's three-dimensional model and flight scene are generated by using open graphics library (OpenGL), modeling method of three-dimensional objects and it's flight data driven method. The multi-view data visualization of flight course reappears from flight-test data. And according to the system, whether the flight-test data meet flight-test outline can be determined. The data visualization system provides an intuitive way to prove the validity of flight-test data and aircraft load state can be judged by the reproduced scene. The system could be applied to any type of aircraft as long as data description file and model configuration file are configured correctly.
