Future progress in aviation safety can be expected to involve the routine integration of information from APMS, PDARS, and other sources. Such integration will require both greater depth of analysis of individual data sources and automated ability to integrate information extracted from diverse sources to draw sound conclusions on causal factors and risk assessment. It also will be necessary for users to evaluate such integration to determine its usefulness. It is planned to develop capabilities for such integration during the next few years.
