Pilot's Automated Weather Support System (PAWSS) Concepts Demonstration Project. Phase 1. Pilot's Weather Information Requirements and Implications for Weather Data Systems Design

Abstract

This report defines the weather information requirements for pilots, and deficiencies of the current aviation weather support system in meeting these requirements. As the amount of data available to pilots increases significantly in the near future, expert system technology will be needed to assist pilots in assimilating that information. Some other desirable characteristics of an automation-assisted system for weather data acquisition, dissemination and assimilation are also described.
