Agenda
The Goal of this meeting is for the JPDO Weather Product Development Team (PDT) to share with the broader aviation-weather community of interest the status of “NGATS Weather”.
The aviation-weather community of interest will have an opportunity to provide feedback to the JPDO Weather IPT on the “NGATS Weather - Concept of Operations” and overall vision for transforming how the Air Traffic Management (ATM) and Weather communities work together to mitigate the impacts of weather in the NAS.
The scope of this Vision meeting is the medium and long term R & D and implementation of ATM-Weather operational solutions. Short-term (12-36 months) operational issues and the resultant solutions are the scope of the separate 19 Oct 2006 FPAW forum at NBAA in Orlando.
