Developer Notice

EUROCONTROL BADA Development Necessary

This code uses EUROCONTROL's BADA for aircraft performance data that drive the aircraft dynamics modeling. However, BADA functionality and code cannot be provided due to licensing restrictions imposed by EUROCONTROL. Therefore, stub classes exist in this code repository that represent MITRE's suggested implementation in order to use this software. See Bada.cpp and BadaPerformanceCalculator.cpp. Please complete the implementation in these classes before using the code.

Log4Cplus Dependency

Log4Cplus is a logging application used by this code base. It needs to be installed prior to building this code. You can download it from their GitHub repo.

Continuous Integration & Testing

To view a successful build and any public-facing tests, please also refer to the Travis-CI job that is always building and testing this repo's master branch.

Compile

No attempt has been made to ensure that this code will compile on all operating systems. This code compiles successfully on Linux machines, specifically CentOs 7 using gcc 4.8.5. For all other computing environments, YMMV.

The CMake utility is used to compile this code. If not already installed on the target environment, it is easily installed via apt. Please use version 3.0+. From the root directory, execute:

>> mkdir build
>> cd build
>> cmake ..
>> make

The resulting executable will be found in /bin and is named FMACM.

Run Unit Tests

Unit tests can be run via the CMake infrastructure.

Assuming the software already compiles:

>> cd build
>> make run

Run

A configuration file must be provided as the only command-line argument to the FMACM program. The file must be formatted as plain text and contain paths to each scenario that is to be run. The contents of the configuration file must look like this:

# number of scenarios to run
2 

# path to each scenario file, one per line, as many as the number above indicates
path/to/scenario.txt 
path/to/scenario2.txt 

Users may list as many scenario files as desired. The scenario file provides detailed instructions about the scenario that FMACM is to run. An example configuration and scenario file is provided in ./Run_Files/.

The executable is then executed in this manner:

./bin/FMACM configuration.txt 

Output is found in the run-time directory.

Inputs

The format of the horizontal flight path input file has changed since the last release. There is a new script to convert any files you may have in the old format:

./.python/convert_pre_april_2020_hfp_files.py

Navigate to the directory that you want your nex file to be generated in:

cd Run_Files/

Run the script with the path to the file you wish to convert, and the desired output filename as command line arguments:

../.python/convert_pre_april_2020_hfp_files.py path/to/input.csv output_filename
