NATURAL ENVIRONMENTAL DATA AND SUPPORT REQUIREMENTS

Abstract

The what and the why of present and future Air Force Systems Command requirements for natural aerospace environmental data and information are described. The environmental parameters about which information i desired are enumerated and the purposes for which the information is or will be used are discussed. Included are substantiated, qualitative statements of need for data or support, without regard to whether the support requires R+D action or can be met through existing state-of-the-art technological capabilities. Development of equipments and techniques will certainly be required to fill the gaps in our knowledge and capabilities, but these requirements are not discussed. Background information for those who plan and estimate resources for future natural environmental support to the USAF is provided.
