3. The Observation • Every 6 hours: • Wind speed • Wind direction • Air pressure • Air temperature • Humidity • SST • Sea state • Visibility • Past weather • Present weather • Cloud coverage • Cloud layers Ship’s Observations Organized

4. The Observation • Voluntary observers • Nautical officers • Mutual need for good observations • TurboWin helps with coding observation Ship’s Observations Organized

5. TurboWin • Interface close to the ‘nautical world’ • No need for the observer to know the codes • Observations are immediately checked • Internal consistency • Climatology • Correctly coded observation is automatically assembled and ready for transmission • Transmission for operational use via Inmarsat • Storage on board computer incl. meta data for climatological use Ship’s Observations Organized
