AOS Applications Seminar: Understanding Data Needs in the Aviation Community
Seminar Speaker: Danny Sims (FAA AWRP), Nathan Polderman (United Airlines), and Ty Higginbotham (AWC)
The Atmosphere Observing System (AOS) will help provide transformative three-dimensional space-based and suborbital observations of essential collocated cloud, dynamic, precipitation and aerosol processes, leading to improved predictions of weather and smoke that will directly support and enhance aviation applications. In this seminar invited panelists, Danny Sims (FAA AWRP), Nathan Polderman (United Airlines), and Ty Higginbotham (AWC), discussed their current uses of remote sensing products for monitoring and modeling hazardous weather, with a particular focus on data product use for turbulence, icing and low-level cloud hazards.
