Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An operational demonstration of the Automated Weather Observing System (AWOS) was conducted at 14 airport installations in the contiguous United States and Alaska. The AWOS demonstration units employed were procured from two system manufacturers, WeatherMeasure and Artais, and consisted of commercially available equipment including sensors, processors, and auxiliary hardware. The sensors were used to detect and measure nine atmospheric parameters: cloud height, visibility, wind speed, wind direction, barometric pressure, temperature, dew point, precipitation occurrence, and precipitation amount. These data were then digitized, processed, synthesized into voice messages, and updated each minute. Access to the voice message by pilots in flight was accomplished by very high frequency (VHF) omnidirectional range (VOR) or discrete VHF, and for preflight purposes, by telephone access. This report discusses the analyses and provides results and conclusions derived from AWOS demonstration source data collected during the period September 1983 through June 1984. Source data included pilot questionnaire user response, maintenance personnel failure logs, hourly AWOS observations, and official observations when available. It was concluded that, in general, the performance of the system and all sensors at the 14 field sites was acceptable except for the ceilometer and precipitation sensors.

This book was released on 1986 with total page 67 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An automated Weather Observing System (AWOS) was installed at the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Technical Center's Interim Concept Development Heliport. This was done in order to evaluate the siting, installation, and operational suitability of the AWOS at a heliport. The principal recommendations of this report have been incorporated in FAA Advisory Circular (AC) 150/5220-16, Automated Weather Observing Systems (AWOS) for Non-Federal applications. (Author).

This book was released on 1987 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During 1985, a series of flight tests were made at the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Technical Center to develop siting standards for the installation of Automated Weather Observing Systems (AWOS) at helicopters. The results of this evaluation were documented in the report 'The Siting, Installation, and Operational Suitability of the Automated Weather Observing System (AWOS) at Helicopters'. A questionnaire (OME approved) was distributed through the helicopter operators/managers to the users of the New Orleans Downtown Heliport, Indianapolis Downtown Heliport, and Technical Center Heliport. This report presents the analysis of the questionnaires used to determine the operational suitability of AWOS at helicopters. The results of the analysis of the questionnaires indicate that the AWOS equipment is suited for heliport use. A distinction should be made between the prevailing winds at the landing area and winds in the heliport vicinity. This situation can be resolved with the use of a wind sock in conjunction with the anemometer. The wind sock should be placed near the landing pad to provide surface wind information and the anemometer should be placed as close to the nominal landing decision point height as possible in order to provide prevailing wind information above the height of obstacles surrounding the heliport.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Automated Surface Observing System (ASOS) automatically collects weather data and provides accurate, 24-hour accumulated weather reports to local weather observers; weather forecasters; airport personnel, including pilots and air traffic controllers (ATC's); and Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and National Weather Service (NWS) personnel. ASOS functions include: measurement of weather elements, data processing and display, communication, and data storage (archiving). The ASOS is a flexible system with a modular construction that allows deployment in a variety of configurations for operation with or without the attendance of an observer. Unattended, the ASOS automatically collects, process, and error checks data and formats, displays, archives, and reports the weather elements included in a surface weather observation. The ASOS also accepts imputs from observers (when present), who may also override or add information to the automatically generated observation. Because of the flexibility of the ASOS, it can provide useful weather information in text, video, and audio format to a variety of users. Table 1.1.1 lists the users with which the ASOS can interface.
