A Study of AMDAR-Based Air Route Meteorological Model
Zhang Jun · Avionics Technology · 2009
A new air route meteorological forecast model is presented in this paper.By introducing a new concept of virtual-observation points,using a statistical prediction system based on Kalman filter,and combining the information of AMDAR data with WAFS(World Area Forecast System)GRIB(GRIdded Binary)forecast data,this model can significantly improve the resolution and precision of meteorological forecast along the air route.The simulation result indicates that the new model has a better performance than the that of WAFS forecasting.
