This invention combines meteorological, environmental, or dynamic vehicle data with data specific to a particular craft or vehicle, such as, for example, the weight, speed, acceleration, response characteristics, propulsion, mode of propulsion, and configuration, of a particular aircraft, and produces a simplified display map showing environmental conditions data as the environmental conditions data relates to that specific vehicle. The environmental conditions data is presented on the display map in the form of environmental condition annotations that have different coloring, shading, and/or iconization as determined by the type, severity, and area of the various environmental conditions relative to the vehicle. This invention separately provides travel route optimization for a particular craft or vehicle based on the combination of meteorological and other environmental data with data specific to the particular craft or vehicle. This invention also separately provides methods for transmitting environmental conditions information.

1. A method of transmitting environmental conditions information from a vehicle, comprising the steps of: receiving dynamic vehicle information; determining an environmental conditions value based on the received dynamic vehicle information; receiving an environmental conditions threshold; comparing the environmental conditions value to the environmental conditions threshold; determining whether the environmental conditions value exceeds the environmental conditions threshold; and transmitting, if the environmental conditions value exceeds the environmental conditions threshold, at least some appropriate information relating to the dynamic vehicle information, the environmental conditions, the environmental conditions value, or the environmental conditions threshold value. 2. The method of claim 1, wherein the dynamic vehicle information is information related to the environmental conditions the vehicle is experiencing. 3. The method of claim 1, wherein receiving dynamic vehicle information includes receiving dynamic vehicle information from a system onboard the particular vehicle. 4. The method of claim 1, wherein the dynamic vehicle information includes data about at least one of the vehicle's weight, performance characteristics, center of gravity, vertical acceleration, lateral acceleration, speed, angle of attack, angle of sideslip, and direction. 5. The method of claim 1, wherein at least some of the dynamic vehicle information is predetermined dynamic vehicle information. 6. The method of claim 1, wherein the step of determining an environmental conditions value based on the received dynamic vehicle information comprises the steps of: receiving vehicle specific information; determining, based on the received dynamic vehicle information and the received vehicle specific information, the environmental conditions value. 7. Them method of claim 6, wherein the vehicle specific information includes at least one of the vehicle's size, propulsion, mode of propulsion, structure, type of control system(s), type of control surfaces, longitudinal aerodynamics, lateral aerodynamics, maximum weight, structural limitations, mechanical limitations, performance limitations, safety limitations, maximum operational ceiling, maximum Mach numbers, and maximum airspeeds. 8. The method of claim 6, wherein at least some of the vehicle Specific information is predetermined vehicle specific information. 9. The method of claim 6, wherein at least some of the received vehicle specific information is static vehicle information.
