A safety monitor arranged to: receive a flight plan comprising a plurality of waypoints for an aircraft to follow on a flight mission; receive hazard data corresponding to one or more hazards; generate an aircraft occupancy region comprising a four-dimensional volume corresponding to a range of possible spatial and temporal coordinates for the aircraft along the flight plan; generate a hazard occupancy region comprising a four-dimensional volume corresponding to a range of possible spatial and temporal coordinates associated with the one or more hazards; and determine whether there is an overlap between the four-dimensional volume of the aircraft occupancy region and the hazard occupancy region.
