Weather Integration and Concepts of Integration (CONINT) through FY12 A Briefing for FPAW August 8, 2012 Mark Huberdeau
Weather Integration – Definition “…inclusion of weather information into the logic of a decision process or a decision aid such that [the impacts of] weather constraints are taken into account when the [ATM] decision is made or recommended” (ATM-Weather Integration Plan V2.0, Executive Summary, September, 2010) From.. the Idea – to Concept – to Plan – to Research & Engineering – to Reality into the Operational Decision Processes
