Automated Model Atmosphere Generator Program (AMAG)
Abstract
This paper documents a computer program for generating internally consistent model atmosphere data based on a terrain following five-layer temperature model derived from the 1976 U.S. Standard Atmosphere and the 1966 U. S. Standard Atmosphere Supplements. For any given geometric altitude, terrain height, ground level temperature and altimeter setting, the Automated Model Atmosphere Generator (AMAG) program will calculate corresponding temperature and pressure altitude values. From these two output parameters the user can compute additional environmental parameters needed to solve particular engineering problems.
