  1. Report of CAeM President Congress-XVI Geneva, Switzerland 16 May -3 June 2011

  2. CAeM-XIV Top-level Priorities • Implementation of QMS • Implementation of Aeronautical Meteorological Personnel Competence Standards • Development of Meteorological Services in the Terminal Area (MSTA) proposal • Resolution of SIGMET deficiencies • (Development of MET support for Volcanic Ash)

  3. Quality Management System (QMS) • Implementation of recognized QMS for aeronautical MET services – an ICAO Standard with applicability date of 15 November 2012 (recommendation is to obtain certification to ISO 9001:2008 standard) • Members encouraged to utilize documentation and recommendations of the Tanzania Pilot Project • Support provided by Secretariat and Members – additional requests suggested to be on “twinning basis” • WMO-49 Vol IV (final draft) & WMO-1001

  4. After the fact it is too late to get it...

  5. Competency Standards for Aeronautical Meteorological Personnel (AMP) • EC-LXII approved AMP Competency Standards (for inclusion in WMO-49 Vol I) developed by CAeM in response to ICAO requirement • Successful development of Competence Assessment Toolkit (CAT) by CAeM TT-CAT, with flexibility taking into consideration of regional and national differences • Requirement for MET services to achieve AMP Competency Standards by 1 December 2013 • Members’ concerns relating to AMF ‘Meteorologist’ classification requirement recognized. Will be discussed at lunchtime side meeting on Thursday 19th (12:30 pm in Salle 8)

  6. Meteorological Services in the Terminal Area (MSTA) • Deliver MSTA proposals to the next Conjoint WMO CAeM / ICAO MET/AIM Divisional meeting (2014) supported by ICAO and users • Support Global ATM, Performance Based Air Navigation (PBN), reducing weather delays • Standardization promotes Collaborative Decision Making (CDM) and avoids costly duplication of efforts • Regional and sub-regional cooperation encouraged – brings economies of scale

  7. International MSTA initiatives 7

  8. Deficiencies in SIGMET • Long-standing deficiencies in SIGMET issuance resulting in serious concerns and user complaints • Trial being conducted by ICAO, involving three selected regional centres (China, France and South Africa) • Provides SIGMET advisories with a view to improving level of compliance of SIGMET • Initial monitoring show some improvements

  9. Global SIGMET Monitoring

  10. MET Support for Volcanic Ash • Joint WMO-IUGG VA Scientific Advisory Group (VASAG) established, playing a key role in ICAO IVATF • Working with ICAO and the aviation industry to better understand VA impacts and user requirements in relation to (i) aviation safety and (ii) maintenance/airworthiness considerations • Members’ inputs required to review current VA forecasting and integrated observational capability best practices

  11. Other AeM Developments • World Area Forecast System • Net-centric environment / System Wide Information Management (SWIM) / WXXM • Space weather services (with CBS) • Re-structuring of ICAO Annex 3 & possible development of new Procedures for Air Navigation Services, Meteorology (PANS-MET)

  12. Resolution 11.6/1 (Cg-XVI) • AeMP is a high-priority programme that should be suitably resourced • Need to address requirements of aviation stakeholders • Need contributions from Members, EC and RAs (regional groups) • Multi-agency partnership and collaboration (including ICAO, ASCENA, IATA, IFALPA, IFATCA)

  13. Thank you
