Abstract

Disclosed is a method including sampling an occupant zone of an aircraft by creating a data record that can be made available in the event of an outbreak, epidemic, or pandemic involving an occupant of the aircraft. The data record includes identification information which can be used to make available records to the relevant authority.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A method comprising the steps of:
 sampling an occupant zone of an aircraft to produce a sample;   providing a data record that is related to the sample; and   making the data record broadly available at least in the event of an outbreak, epidemic, or pandemic involving at least one of the occupants of the occupant zone of the aircraft.   
     
     
         2 . The method according to  claim 1 , wherein the act of sampling includes the act of using a sampling device thereby providing the sample. 
     
     
         3 . The method according to  claim 2 , wherein the act of providing a data record related to the sample is related to the act of using the sampling device. 
     
     
         4 . The method according to  claim 3 , wherein the data record includes identification information. 
     
     
         5 . The method according to  claim 4 , wherein the identification information includes information identifying the sampling device. 
     
     
         6 . The method according to  claim 4 , wherein the identification information includes information identifying the aircraft. 
     
     
         7 . The method according to  claim 4 , wherein the identification information includes information identifying at least one occupant of the aircraft. 
     
     
         8 . The method according to  claim 1 , wherein the data record includes time or date information. 
     
     
         9 . The method according to  claim 1 , wherein the data record includes flight information. 
     
     
         10 . The method according to  claim 1 , wherein the data record includes a flight number. 
     
     
         11 . The method according to  claim 1 , wherein the data record includes an airport code. 
     
     
         12 . The method according to  claim 1 , wherein the data record includes coordinate information. 
     
     
         13 . The method according to  claim 1 , wherein the data record includes speed information. 
     
     
         14 . The method according to  claim 1  further including the act of performing an analysis of the quality of the sample. 
     
     
         15 . The method according to  claim 14 , wherein the data record includes quality information related to the analysis of the quality of sample. 
     
     
         16 . The method according to  claim 15 , wherein the quality information includes information about a contaminant. 
     
     
         17 . The method according to  claim 16 , wherein the information about a contaminant includes information about pathogens. 
     
     
         18 . The method according to  claim 17 , wherein the information about pathogens includes information about bacteria. 
     
     
         19 . The method according to  claim 17 , wherein the information about pathogens includes information about fungi. 
     
     
         20 . The method according to  claim 17 , wherein the information about pathogens includes information about viruses. 
     
     
         21 . The method according to  claim 1 , further comprising the act of creating the data record. 
     
     
         22 . The method according to  claim 1 , further comprising the act of reading the data record. 
     
     
         23 . The method according to  claim 1 , further comprising the act of updating the data record. 
     
     
         24 . The method according to  claim 1 , further comprising the act of deleting the data record. 
     
     
         25 . The method according to  claim 1 , further comprising the act of including the data record as part of a set of data records. 
     
     
         26 . The method according to  claim 25 , further comprising the act of extrapolating a second data record from the set of data records. 
     
     
         27 . The method according to  claim 1 , further comprising the act of including the data record as part of the log book of the aircraft.
