Computer-based systems are described that afford the ability to associate
a travel related object with a travel relate event and/or other travel
related object. The system enables the acquisition, integration and
management of data supplied by multiple, heterogeneous sources; single
and multi-level exception handling, error correction, data enhancement,
and data prediction; and fine-grained control of the distribution, access
and display of this data to multiple users and non-users of the system.
The system supports both consumer-facing constructs (e.g., applications
that allow passengers to track flight and flight-specific information),
and supra-management system-facing constructs (e.g., advancements,
enhancements and augmentations of and for the management of the National
Airspace System or airport ground traffic systems).
