  1. Regional Implementation Plan Aircraft-Based Observations Programme WMO; Observing and Information Systems Department

  2. From Global to Regional Scale The ABOP Strategy and Implementation Plan (A-SIP) will: • support and rely on a regional approach to planning and implementation through the WMO Regional Associations and, • will also provide requested support directly to those individual NMHSs that have demonstrated capability and drive to establish AMDAR programs. WMO

  3. Scope The Scope of the A-RIP should include strategy and plans for: • the development and implementation or expansion of AMDAR with the inclusion of consideration for water vapour measurement (utilising WVSS-II); and, • derivation of ABO data from additional or alternative observing systems such as TAMDAR, (AirDat), AFIRS (FlyHt) and ICAO Automatic Dependent Surveillance (ADS). WMO

  4. Aims and Objectives • Develop and implement a strategy and plan for the improvement of upper air data coverage over your Region • Where possible and agreed, take a regional, collaborative approach to ABO systems development and implementation, taking advantage of economic efficiencies etc. • Coordinate the A-RIP with the corresponding regional implementation plan for WIGOS (R-WIP) WMO

  5. There is work for you to do ..... The A-RIP document presented to this meeting (INF 5.2.3.1) is a template where in particular • Section 5 Regional Considerations and • Section 6 Implementation Plan have to be completed by each Region individually as the content will vary between Regions depending on the actual conditions WMO

  6. Section 5 Regional considerations • 5.1 Current Status of AMDAR and Aircraft-based Observations in Region [...] • 5.2 Current Status of Upper Air Data Coverage in Region [...] • 5.3 Requirements for Upper Air Data Coverage Improvement [...] • 5.4 Analysis of AMDAR Candidate Regional and National Airlines [Based on the WMO study...] • 5.5 Analysis of Other Aircraft-based Observations Data Sources [...] • 5.6 Infrastructure Issues [...] • 5.7 Communications Issues [...] WMO

  7. Section 6 Implementation Plan • 6.1 Strategy and Approach to Regional Development [...] • 6.2 Stakeholders, Management and Coordination [...] • 6.3 Resources [...] • 6.4 Activities and Tasks WMO etc, etc, etc

  8. There is work for you to do ..... • WMO has completed study on AMDAR Coverage & Targeting for Future Airline Recruitment • 7 Data-sparse Regions for targeted development • Potential expansion: 128 Airlines with over 2500 aircraft • Initial high priority target airlines: 26 airlines, ~1200 aircraft WMO

  9. There is work for you to do ..... • So identify the stakeholders, airlines and other partners for cooperation and • Analyse the needs and requirements in your Region • Use the recently completed WMO study on Coverage and Target Airlines – Online here. • Complete the A-RIP from your perspective and based on the specific needs, requirements and other conditions in your Region • WMO Secretariat will coordinate the work between the Regions and can assist you • Please send the first draft of your A-RIP to dlockett@wmo.int and scarlbergwmoado@gmail.com by 31st October 2013 WMO

  10. Thank you for your attention Stig Carlberg WMO AMDAR Development Officer scarlbergwmoado@gmail.com
