Advanced Air Mobility High Resolution Weather Requirements
Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) encompasses a range of technological changes that are transforming aviation. The scale, range, and altitude of AAM operations imply that weather will play differently to its role in conventional aviation as there will be increased impacts from dynamic conditions in the planetary boundary layer. Therefore, there is the need for additional weather sensing and higher resolution weather models to be integrated with advanced decision support technologies. This joint presentation between MIT Lincoln Laboratory and SkyGrid will discuss how high resolution weather forecast (HRF) models can be used for AAM operation planning. Moreover, some progress towards identifying industry-specific weather requirements for AAM operations leveraging high-resolution models will be presented.
