| The Automated
Weather Observing System is a collection of sensors
which measure and broadcast weather data to help meteorologists,
pilots and flight dispatchers prepare and monitor weather
forecasts, plan flight routes and provide necessary information
for correct takeoffs and landings. AWOS units provide a minute-to-minute
update to pilots by VHF radio or nondirectional beacon. Each
hour AWOS data is available to off-site users by means of
telephone communication or satellite uplink. Both Federal
and nonfederal systems are in service. The Federal Aviation
Administration purchased and currently maintains the Federal
AWOS equipment. State, local and private organizations buy
and maintain nonfederal AWOSs. |
