Download or read book Aviation Weather Services written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 1995-11-02 with total page 119 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Each time we see grim pictures of aircraft wreckage on a rain-drenched crash site, or scenes of tired holiday travelers stranded in snow-covered airports, we are reminded of the harsh impact that weather can have on the flying public. This book examines issues that affect the provision of national aviation weather services and related research and technology development efforts. It also discusses fragmentation of responsibilities and resources, which leads to a less-than-optimal use of available weather information and examines alternatives for responding to this situation. In particular, it develops an approach whereby the federal government could provide stronger leadership to improve cooperation and coordination among aviation weather providers and users.

Download or read book Where the Weather Meets the Road written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2004-03-31 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Weather has broad and significant effects on the roadway environment. Snow, rain, fog, ice, freezing rain, and other weather conditions can impair the ability of drivers to operate their vehicles safely, significantly reduce roadway capacity, and dramatically increase travel times. Multiple roadway activities, from roadway maintenance and construction to shipping, transit, and police operations, are directly affected by inclement weather. Some road weather information is available to users currently, however a disconnect remains between current research and operations, and additional research could yield important safety and economic improvements for roadway users. Meteorology, roadway technology, and vehicle systems have evolved to the point where users could be provided with better road weather information through modern information technologies. The combination of these technologies has the potential to significantly increase the efficiency of roadway operations, road capacity, and road safety. Where the Weather Meets the Road provides a roadmap for moving these concepts to reality.

Download or read book The Operational Suitability of the Automated Weather Observing System AWOS at Heliports written by Rene A. Matos and published by . 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.

Download or read book Observing Weather and Climate from the Ground Up written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2009-01-06 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Detailed weather observations on local and regional levels are essential to a range of needs from forecasting tornadoes to making decisions that affect energy security, public health and safety, transportation, agriculture and all of our economic interests. As technological capabilities have become increasingly affordable, businesses, state and local governments, and individual weather enthusiasts have set up observing systems throughout the United States. However, because there is no national network tying many of these systems together, data collection methods are inconsistent and public accessibility is limited. This book identifies short-term and long-term goals for federal government sponsors and other public and private partners in establishing a coordinated nationwide "network of networks" of weather and climate observations.
