    Descriptive Report of the Invention Patent "INTELLIGENT BAGGAGE HANDLING".
    FIELD OF THE INVENTION [1] The disclosure refers to the field of vehicular transport and, in particular, to load cargo in vehicles loaded in bulk.
    BACKGROUND [2] Airlines and their baggage service providers use a variety of techniques to ensure that the passenger's baggage is delivered to the correct aircraft in a timely manner. For example, pieces of luggage that can be tagged at check-in with a bar code or an RFID chip that indicates the destination of the corresponding flight and passenger information. The pieces of luggage can then be automatically transported to a staging area, from which they are distributed for the appropriate flight based on their label. Baggage handlers transport luggage to an aircraft cargo hold, and attempt to load the aircraft on a suitcase-to-suitcase basis that includes many ad-hoc decisions made by a baggage handler.
    [3] Although the current ad-hoc techniques for loading baggage are flexible, they are devoid of the fact that it is impossible to know a priori how an aircraft will be loaded. This in turn is less than desirable when considering the aircraft's center of gravity during the flight (impacting fuel consumption), the balance of the aircraft during loading and / or unloading, and the recovery time of bags specifically desired at from the cargo compartment (for example, luggage belonging to a passenger who needs to quickly retrieve his luggage).
    [4] Thus, airlines and their service providers
    Petition 870170071618, of 9/25/2017, p. 104/141
    2/29 of luggage continues to seek improved techniques for loading aircraft cargo compartments in a way that reduces the severity of the concerns discussed above.
    SUMMARY [5] The modalities described in this document quantify each piece of baggage entry for a flight / delivery, before loading that baggage begins. With a quantitative understanding of the luggage that will be placed on board an aircraft / vehicle, combined with an understanding of the geometric properties of the cargo compartment (s), the systems and methods described in this document generate luggage maps that indicate a position of each piece of luggage checked inside the cargo compartment (s). This allows an accurate forecast of weight and balance, the remaining volume left in the cargo compartment (s), etc.
    [6] An exemplary modality is a system that includes an interface that receives input from a check-in system that indicates the sizes and weights for pieces of luggage that are each associated with a unique identifier. The system also includes a controller that selects a delivery, identifies pieces of baggage for delivery, correlates delivery with the dimensions of a cargo compartment for a delivery service vehicle, receives input indicating a loading restriction to load luggage inside of the cargo compartment, and generates a baggage map. The baggage map is based on the sizes and weights of the pieces of luggage for delivery, indicates a location of each piece of luggage for delivery within the cargo compartment, and complies with the loading restriction. The system also includes a memory that stores the baggage map.
    [7] Another modality is a method. The method includes determining
    Petition 870170071618, of 9/25/2017, p. 105/141
    3/29 the dimensions and weights of pieces of luggage for a delivery, identify the dimensions of a cargo compartment of a delivery service vehicle, identify a loading restriction for loading luggage inside the cargo compartment, and generate, before the vehicle loading, a baggage map for delivery. The baggage map indicates a location for each piece of baggage for delivery inside the cargo compartment, complies with the loading restriction, and is based on the dimensions and weights of the pieces of baggage for delivery. The baggage map is generated by subdividing the cargo compartment into volume elements, and associating each piece of luggage with one or more volume elements in the cargo compartment.
    [8] Another exemplary modality is a non-transitory, computer-readable medium incorporating programmed instructions that, when executed by a processor, are operable to perform a method. The method includes determining the dimensions and weights of pieces of luggage for a delivery, identifying the dimensions of a cargo compartment for a delivery service vehicle, identifying a loading restriction for loading luggage inside the cargo compartment, and generating, beforehand of loading the vehicle, the baggage map for delivery. The baggage map indicates a location for each piece of baggage for delivery inside the cargo compartment, complies with the loading restriction, and is based on the dimensions and weights of the pieces of baggage for delivery. The baggage map is generated by subdividing the cargo compartment into volume elements, and associating each piece of luggage with one or more volume elements in the cargo compartment.
    [9] Other exemplary modes (for example, computer-readable methods and medium referring to the above modes) can

    DESCRIPTION [21] The figures and the following description illustrate specific exemplary forms of disclosure. Thus, it will be appreciated that those skilled in the art will be able to design various arrangements that, although not explicitly described or shown in this document, incorporate the principles of disclosure and are included within the scope of the disclosure. In addition, any examples described in this document are intended to help understand the principles of the disclosure, and should be interpreted as being without limitation for such examples and conditions specifically described. As a result, the disclosure is not limited to the specific modalities or examples described below, but by the claims and their equivalents.
    [22] Figures 1-2 illustrate the structure of an exemplary aircraft (for example, a passenger aircraft) that can benefit from using a baggage map when loading and / or unloading pieces of luggage. Specifically, figure 1 is a diagram of an aircraft 100 in an exemplary embodiment. Aircraft 100 includes nose 110, wings 120, fuselage 130, tail 140, and cargo doors 150. Figure 1 also illustrates a downward direction (Z) for aircraft 100.
    [23] Figure 2 is a cross-sectional view of aircraft 100 indicated by vision arrows 2 in figure 1. Figure 2 illustrates an aircraft fuselage portion 130. Fuselage 130 includes a cargo compartment 200 (at present document, a bow load compartment), which is defined by walls 230, floor 250, and
    Petition 870170071618, of 9/25/2017, p. 108/141
    6/29 roof 240. Roof 240 also serves as a floor for a passenger section of aircraft 100. Load compartment 200 occupies a three-dimensional (3D) volume available for storing luggage. Figure 2 illustrates that an outward direction proceeds to an outer surface (e.g., outer layer 260) of the aircraft 100, and an inward direction proceeds inward (for example, cargo compartment 200) of the aircraft 100. Figure 2 further illustrates pieces of luggage 210 inside the cargo compartment 200, as well as revenue cargo 220. Although luggage pieces 210 may comprise luggage for passengers traveling on aircraft 100, or other goods that are to be carried on a flight revenue load 220 comprises goods that are carried on the current flight, but do not need to be carried on a specific flight, instead needing only to be delivered to a specific destination. In one embodiment, the cargo compartment 200 further includes sensors 202 (for example, stereoscopic cameras or other imaging systems that are capable of detecting pieces of luggage 210 loaded inside the cargo compartment 200).
    [24] Figure 3 is a diagram describing baggage handling in an exemplary manner. As shown in figure 3, luggage 210 is received at a check-in counter 300, which can weigh and / or scan luggage 210 to determine the size / dimensions and weight of luggage 210 in 3D. Baggage 210 is placed on a conveyor 310, and can be scanned by a tag reader 320 (for example, a Radio Frequency Identifier (RFID) scanner, a barcode scanner, etc.). Luggage 210 is transported by conveyor 310 to a preparation area 330, from which a tag reader 320 identifies individual pieces of luggage 210, and distributes pieces of luggage 210 paPetition 870170071618, from 25/09/2017, p. 109/141
    7/29 to wait for the aircraft 100 that will serve the flights for which baggage 210 is destined. Tag readers 320 on each aircraft enable each piece of luggage 210 received to be identified prior to loading, which allows pieces of luggage to be loaded according to a predefined 3D baggage map.
    [25] Figure 4 is a block diagram illustrating a 400 system for handling baggage for an aircraft in an exemplary mode. The 400 system has been improved in that it is able to quantify the luggage that will be placed on a given flight, and is able to predictably generate one or more luggage maps indicating how to load one or more cargo compartments 200 from an aircraft 100 serving that flight . For example, in the modalities in which an aircraft uses bow and rear cargo compartments, the 400 system can optimize an aircraft's center of gravity by generating baggage maps that optimize the load weight distribution between the bow cargo compartments and rear.
    [26] In this modality, system 400 includes baggage mapping system 410, which performs operations to predictably generate a baggage map 419 for each of multiple flights. The baggage mapping system 410 includes controller 412, interface (I / F) 314, and memory 416. Memory 416 stores luggage maps 419, as well as a cargo compartment database 417 indicating the volume. and the dimensions of the cargo holdings of varying model aircraft (for example, including door locations and / or support or obstruction locations within those cargo holdings). Memory 416 also includes baggage database 418, which stores information quantifying each piece of baggage for a flight. For example, the information stored in the baggage database 418 for each piece
    Petition 870170071618, of 9/25/2017, p. 110/141
    8/29 of luggage can indicate weight, dimensions, density, passenger name, departure gate, arrival gate, flight number, etc., for the piece of luggage. In another modality, the information can indicate predefined dimensions known for brands and / or models of luggage. This information may also include, for example, whether the passenger associated with the luggage is a training, business or first-class passenger if the piece of luggage is rigid, if the luggage is marked as fragile, if there are connecting flights, an indication of the passenger's condition (for example, traveling with a small child, needing a wheelchair, etc.) and / or other information of interest.
    [27] Controller 412 manages the operations of baggage mapping system 410, generating baggage maps 419 and processing information received through I / F414. Controller 412 can be implemented, for example, as custom circuits, as a processor executing programmed instructions, or some combination of them. I / F 414 can comprise an Ethernet cable, Universal Serial Bus (USB) cable, IEEE 802.11 wireless protocol interface, etc.
    [28] Figure 4 further illustrates the baggage check-in system 420, which quantifies the pieces of baggage received. In this modality, the check-in system 420 includes the tag reader 421 (for example, a bar code reader or RFID chip), scale 422 that weighs the pieces of luggage, scanner 424 that determines the dimensions of the pieces baggage, and the stiffness measuring device 426. The stiffness measuring device 426 applies force to the pieces of luggage to determine whether they are rigid or soft. In another modality, images of the pieces of luggage acquired by an image formation system can be analyzed to try to visually distinguish soft pieces of luggage from pieces of rigid luggage. 870170071618, of 25/09/2017, p. 111/141
    9/29 of.
    [29] Flight server 430 maintains a list of incoming and / or outgoing flights. When accessing flight server 430 via I / F414, controller 412 determines which aircraft model is serving each flight. This information can be combined with the information in the cargo compartment database 417 in order to determine the size of the cargo compartment to be filled, and with pieces of luggage that will be entering the cargo compartment for a given flight.
    [30] Baggage carrier 440 transports the pieces of baggage from check-in to the aircraft on hold 450. In this embodiment, baggage carrier 440 includes the tag reader 442, which reads the tags on the checked pieces of luggage to determine one destination for each piece of luggage, and carrier 444. Aircraft 450 includes cargo compartments 452 and 454. The luggage loading system 460 is also shown in figure 4. In this embodiment, the luggage loading system 460 includes a tag reader 462 and a monitor 464. The loading system 460 can provide information to the baggage mapping system 410 by identifying pieces of baggage that are about to be loaded. Based on the entry of the baggage mapping system 410, the loading system 360 can update the monitor 464 to illustrate the locations where to load these pieces of luggage into a cargo compartment (452, 454) of the aircraft 350. Sensors 451 are also illustrated.
    [31] Details illustrating the operation of the 400 system will be discussed with respect to figure 5. Suppose, for this modality, that passengers have entered an airport, and are actively checking baggage for incoming flights. Checked pieces of baggage being actively transported to your destination aircraft
    Petition 870170071618, of 9/25/2017, p. 112/141
    10/29, and baggage handlers await entry indicating how each aircraft should be loaded.
    [32] Figure 5 is a flow chart illustrating a method 500 for generating a baggage map for one or more cargo compartments in a copy. The steps of method 500 are described with reference to system 400 of figure 4, but those skilled in the art will appreciate that method 500 can be performed on other baggage handling systems. The steps in the flowcharts described in this document are not all inclusive and may include other steps not shown. The steps described in this document can also be performed in an alternate order.
    [33] The check-in system 420 receives the pieces of luggage 210, and operates the tag reader 421 to determine a unique identifier for each piece of luggage 210 received. In addition, scale 422 and scanner 424 quantify the weight and size / dimensions of each piece of luggage 210 received. For example, scanner 424 can quantify the size of each piece of luggage 210 "as is", including the size of any expandable / expansion bags with zips and / or mesh in those pieces of luggage. The check-in system 420 also associates identifiers with sizes and weights (step 502). The interface (I / F) 414 receives the entry (for example, from the check-in system 420) by associating the incoming pieces of luggage with the corresponding sizes and weights. Thus, baggage 210 is checked by passengers, baggage mapping system 420 acquires information describing baggage 210 and updates baggage database 418. Controller 412 processes this information, and selects a delivery (for example, a passenger flight) (step 504). A delivery / flight can be selected based on a departure time, based on the entry of the baggage handlers indicating that the baggage will be returned. 870170071618, of 25/09/2017, p. 113/141
    11/29 to started for the flight (or will start within a pre-defined time period), or can be selected based on all passengers for the flight checked.
    [34] With the delivery / flight identified, controller 412 proceeds to determine the dimensions and weights of pieces of luggage for the flight (for example, identifying the pieces of luggage for the flight that were previously quantified in step 502) (step 506 ). In one embodiment, the pieces of luggage 210 for the flight are items that will be loaded for passengers on the flight, and therefore are considered non-optional for loading purposes. Controller 412 can identify pieces of baggage 210 for the flight by reviewing baggage database 418.
    [35] Controller 412 also identifies the dimensions of a cargo compartment 200 of a vehicle (for example, an aircraft) serving the delivery / flight (for example, identifying the model of aircraft that will serve the flight, and accessing the seat data compartment 417) (step 508). This step takes into account the fact that the vehicle's cargo compartments vary in size and shape, which complicates the loading process. Controller 412 also identifies a loading restriction for loading the pieces of luggage into the cargo compartment 200 (step 510). As used in this document, a loading restriction determines a specific objective to be achieved when loading the cargo compartment 200. For example, a loading restriction can request / specify that a baggage map includes a pre-defined empty volume in the compartment of cargo. Such empty volumes can be filled with a revenue load (eg postal parcels) to improve the revenue generated by the flight.
    [36] With the loading restriction determined, controller 412 generates a baggage map 419 for delivery / flight. The map
    Petition 870170071618, of 9/25/2017, p. 114/141
    12/29 luggage 419 indicates a location for each piece of luggage 210 for the flight inside the cargo compartment 200, complies with the loading restriction, and is based on the dimensions and weights of the luggage pieces 210 for the flight (step 512 ). This process may involve classifying each piece of luggage 210 based on its weight and dimensions, and engaging in a stochastic (for example, simulated annealing) or deterministic (for example, a Nelder-Meade simplex optimization technique), in which the sorting function is based on the load restriction. Thus, for the loading constraint requesting that a predefined volume of space (for example, having the specified dimensions) remain open within the cargo compartment 200, potential loads can be classified based on whether they provide such a volume of space. Other criteria for classification may indicate ease of loading, balance provided by the aircraft 100, loading or estimated unloading time, etc. Controller 412 can also update baggage map 419 upon receiving information that more pieces of baggage 210 (or less pieces of baggage 210) must be loaded into the cargo compartment 200 for delivery / flight.
    [37] The acceptance of baggage 210 and its movement to an aircraft is largely a serial process. After baggage map 419 is created, it may be desirable to re-sequence luggage pieces 210 so that they reach the cargo compartment in the desired sequence. This in turn may involve temporary random access storage of pieces of luggage. For example, pieces of baggage 210 can be stacked at predetermined locations on a baggage cart train, so that when a baggage handler starts with a first baggage cart and moves on
    Petition 870170071618, of 9/25/2017, p. 115/141
    13/29 bags from the cart to a loading mechanism, the luggage pieces 210 arrive in the cargo compartment 200 in the appropriate sequence.
    [38] Thus, with baggage map 419 generated, baggage handlers proceed to load aircraft 100 into the loading system 460 based on baggage map 419. This can comprise controller 412 receiving requests / input to the tag reader 462 identifying each next piece of luggage 210 that is read to load for the flight and generate instructions in response to requests that direct the monitor 464 to present information describing the desired location for that piece of luggage in the cargo compartment 200 (for example, transmitting an instruction / command for the 464 monitor to visually represent the locations in which to place the next pieces of luggage indicated in the requests). The information can be represented textually and / or graphically. These techniques can also be used to load land transport vehicles such as railroad cars, semi-trucks, delivery vans, etc. to enable the downloading and tracking of more efficient / faster packages from departure to delivery. Using method 500, loading of one or more payload compartments 200 can be predictably planned instead of being carried out ad-hoc. For example, the 412 controller can generate / optimize multiple baggage maps for multiple cargo compartments of an aircraft at the same time, to ensure the requested / pre-defined weight distribution on an aircraft. This provides the ability to predictably determine the impact of the load on the balance of an aircraft 100 (impacting the amount of fuel loaded on the aircraft) and also allows predictably to determine whether or not the revenue load will fit aircraft 100. An additional benefit is obtained where a handler
    Petition 870170071618, of 9/25/2017, p. 116/141
    14/29 of experienced baggage is not required to achieve specific loading targets, as the 410 baggage mapping system predictably ensures that those targets are achieved. In addition, generating luggage maps predictably based on the known sizes and weights of luggage pieces 210 yields more accurate determinations of the weight and configuration of the cargo compartment (for example, the balance and / or center of gravity), which facilitates an estimate of use of fuel during the flight, and also facilitates the calculations of flight calibration, takeoff, and / or landing. For example, each time interface 414 receives input from the loading system 460 identifying a next piece of luggage 210 to load into the cargo compartment 200, controller 412 can analyze the luggage map 419 to identify a location in which to place the piece baggage 210, and transmit an instruction to monitor 464 (for example, located in a baggage handling vehicle inside a baggage train near the cargo compartment 200, or located on a mobile device used by a baggage handler) to present an image of the place. In another embodiment, controller 412 can also operate a loudspeaker (for example, on monitor 464, such as a monitor or projector) in order to audibly indicate a location when loading or retrieving a piece of luggage 210. In the modalities where monitor 464 is a projector, monitor 464 can illuminate a portion of the cargo compartment 210 for loading and can also project images of pieces of luggage 210 according to their desired locations indicated on baggage map 419. In another embodiment, the monitor 464 comprises a stereoscopic headset that can present the locations indicated on baggage map 419 in an overlay of virtual reality or alternative reality view on top of the carPetition compartment 870170071618, of 25/09/2017, p. 117/141
    15/29 to 200.
    [39] Method 500 also provides an advantage by allowing the retrieval of individual pieces of luggage 210 from a cargo compartment 200, since a luggage map 419 indicates the location of each piece of luggage 210 in the cargo compartment 200. This that is, as the interface 414 receives input from the loading system 460 identifying a piece of luggage 210 for unloading from the cargo compartment 200, controller 412 identifies a location in the cargo compartment 200 for the piece of luggage 210 for unloading based on the baggage 419, and generates an instruction transmitted through interface 414 to monitor 464 in order to visually represent the location through the loading system.
    [40] Other benefits related to reduced load times and / or work can also be realized by predictably determining how the cargo compartments 200 of the aircraft 100 will be loaded. In other modalities, the pieces of luggage are moved from the cargo compartment 200 to a carousel at an airport, passengers (or other cargo recipients) can track the locations of these pieces of luggage through an application loaded on a mobile device (for example, cell phone, tablet, etc.).
    [41] In other examples, a loading restriction may request a baggage map 419 (or set of baggage maps 419 for an aircraft / vehicle) specifying / providing a weight distribution for the pieces of luggage for the flight that ensures a aircraft's desired / predefined / requested center of gravity (for example, from side to side or from bow to rear). In one embodiment, the desire is to optimize the location of the center of gravity (or center of pressure) (within the aircraft's operating limits) to minimize the requested tail load balance, thereby reducing the
    Petition 870170071618, of 9/25/2017, p. 118/141
    16/29 drag from the aircraft trim during flight and improving fuel economy. Even for an aircraft without a tail surface, there may be a desire to optimize the aircraft's center of gravity location to minimize drag. Of course, the most effective flight and / or transport characteristics can be used as a restriction on loads that provide criteria for generating a baggage map. For example, effective cargo loading can help reduce fuel consumption and work while increasing the safety of the passenger and the baggage handler.
    [42] In another embodiment, controller 412 can identify the locations of passenger seats inside an aircraft cabin. A baggage map can then be determined by taking into account the most likely cabin load based on those seating locations. Such calculations may also take into account statistical methods to estimate the average weight of passengers and / or the number of hand luggage that will be carried on board the aircraft during the flight. This can provide a complete calculation of the weight and / or total balance on the aircraft. In another modality, hand luggage can be pre-located, loaded and / or stowed (for example, with assistance from the flight attendant and / or boarding pass direction) to facilitate boarding and disembarking the aircraft.
    [43] Yet another example of a loading restriction may specify / request that baggage map 419 piles pieces of luggage 210 for flight from bottom to top in order of density and / or weight in order to reduce labor and facilitate loading / unloading ergonomics for baggage handlers, orienting luggage pieces so that their handles are easily accessible during loading, or stacking luggage pieces 210 according to customer preferences (for example,
    Petition 870170071618, of 9/25/2017, p. 119/141
    17/29 example, requesting that a desired side of a piece of luggage be turned up during the flight). In one embodiment, the loading restriction places first-class and / or business luggage on top of training luggage (or in another desirable position in relation to training luggage), to ensure that first-class luggage and / or business is recovered first during unloading.
    [44] Figure 6 is a diagram illustrating a volume 600 of a cargo compartment in an exemplary embodiment. As shown in figure 6, volume 600 can be defined by edges 610 (which need not be boxed and may have round edges or irregularities in shape). When generating a baggage map 419, controller 412 can subdivide volume 600 into volume elements (“voxels” = volume and pixel), and then associate individual pieces of luggage with one or more voxels. When associating the pieces of luggage with voxels within a luggage map, the 412 controller can also include an extra portion of filling the empty space of each piece of luggage, in order to account for the protruding handles, wheels or other resources extending of a piece of luggage. Figure 7 is a diagram illustrating a predictable baggage map 700 for a cargo compartment 200 in an exemplary embodiment. As shown in figure 7, baggage map 700 indicates a position / volume (for example, volume 710) for each piece of luggage on aircraft 100. In addition, baggage map 700 includes an open volume 720 in which the cargo of recipe can be stored. Figure 8 illustrates a table 800 illustrating information stored on a baggage map in an exemplary way. Specifically, table 800 lists the positions, dimensions and weights for individual pieces of luggage to be stored within a cargo compartment, based on a berry identifier (ID) Petition 870170071618, of 25/09/2017, p. 120/141
    18/29 gem. Based on the positions and dimensions of a piece of luggage, the volume occupied by that piece of luggage can be determined.
    [45] In another modality, an interface 414 receives input from the check-in system 420, assigning each piece of luggage 210 to any heavy class (for example, with heavy side) or light class (for example, with light side) , controller 412 generates baggage map 419 based on the sizes, weights and classes of luggage pieces for the flight (for example, placing heavy and / or dense luggage in the lower cargo compartment 200).
    [46] In another embodiment, sensors 202 detect the position and orientation of each piece of luggage 210 inside the cargo compartment 200 to ensure proper loading according to luggage map 419. If a piece of luggage 210 is not loaded as desired, the loading system 460 detects this condition and can either request the baggage handler to reposition baggage 210, or can request a revised baggage map from baggage mapping system 410 that takes into account this loading diversion unexpected.
    EXAMPLES [47] In the following examples, additional processes, systems, and methods are described in the context of aircraft service. With reference more particularly to the drawings, the disclosure modalities can be described in the context of an aircraft manufacturing and service method 900 as shown in figure 9 and an aircraft 902 as shown in figure 10. During pre-production, the exemplary method 900 may include the 902 aircraft specification and design 904 and material acquisition 906. During production, the manufacture of components and subassembly 908 and system integration 910 of the aircraft 902 takes place. The aircraft 902 can then go through the certificate and delivery 912 in order to be put into service
    Petition 870170071618, of 9/25/2017, p. 121/141
    19/29
    914. While in service by a customer, aircraft 902 is scheduled for routine maintenance and service 916 (which may also include modification, reconfiguration, restoration, and so on). The apparatus and methods incorporated in this document can be employed during any one or more appropriate stages of the 900 production and service method (for example, specification and design 904, material acquisition 906, component and subassembly manufacturing 908, system integration 910, certificate and delivery 912, service 914, maintenance and service 916) and / or any appropriate component of aircraft 902 (eg cell 918, systems 920, interior 922, propulsion 924, electric 926, hydraulic 928, environmental 930).
    [48] Each of the 900 method processes can be performed or performed by a system integrator, a third party, and / or an operator (for example, a customer). For the purposes of this description, a system integrator may include without limitation any number of aircraft manufacturers and larger system subcontractors; a third party may include without limitation any number of vendors, subcontractors and suppliers; and an operator can be an airline, leasing company, military entity, service organization, and so on.
    [49] As shown in figure 10, aircraft 902 produced by the exemplary method 900 can include a 918 cell with a plurality of 920 systems and a 922 interior. Examples and high level 920 systems include one or more of a 924 propulsion system , an electrical system 926, a hydraulic system 928, and an environmental system 930.

    20/29 [50] As already mentioned above, the apparatus and methods incorporated in this document during any one or more of the stages of the production method and service method 900. For example, components or subassemblies corresponding to the production stage 908 can be manufactured or manufactured in a manner similar to the components or subassemblies produced while the 902 aircraft is in service. Also, one or more apparatus modalities, method modalities or a combination thereof can be used during production stages 908 and 910, for example, substantially speeding up the assembly of or reducing the cost of a 902 aircraft. Similarly, one or more of the apparatus modalities, method modalities, or a combination thereof can be used while the 902 aircraft is in service, for example, and without limitation, for maintenance and 916 service. For example, the techniques and systems described in this document can be used for steps 906, 908, 910, 914, and / or 916, and / or can be used for cell 918 and / or interior 922. These techniques and systems can also be used for systems 920, including, for example, propulsion 924, electric 926, hydraulic 928, and / or environmental 930.
    [51] In one mode, during service 914 and / or maintenance and service 916, controller 412 generates baggage maps 700 to load the aircraft serving the outbound flights. Baggage handlers and / or robots can also load the aircraft based on baggage maps, to ensure that pieces of luggage are loaded in the desired manner.
