Many organizations in aviation industry are facing the problem of establishing an overall coherent picture of their business and operations, while disparate datasets from different departments and geographically dispersed locations are united only by experience and often-heterogeneous hardware and software platforms prevent from efficient enterprise application integration. This paper focuses on approaches to increasing the value proposition of management information systems of aviation organization through integrated spatial and visual computing solutions while using the domain of aircraft maintenance, repair and overhaul organization as an illustrative example. The subject of the research is the analysis of the application of new computing approaches to digital transformation of complex geographically distributed services that require timely coordination, accurate localization and efficient planning and execution. The main object of the study is a new integrated spatio-visual framework for smart MRO service of aircraft engines that includes technology and software solutions in support of operations at different levels in aviation organization from top management personnel to the aircraft technician.
