Automatic terminal information service, or ATIS, is a continuous broadcast of recorded aeronautical information in busier terminal areas.ATIS broadcasts contain essential information, such as current weather information, active runways, available approaches, and any other information required by the pilots, such as important NOTAMs.
ATIS use on the Trans-European Inland Waterway network and connecting waterways is mandated by the Regional Arrangement Concerning the Radiotelephone Service on Inland Waterways (RAINWAT) agreements, which also prohibit the use of Digital Selective Calling (DSC) where ATIS is required, except in some near-coastal areas, or in sea-like areas of ...
The sensor reports directly in dew point through a calculation based on measured relative humidity and the measured temperature of the heated capacitive element. [15] Older AWOS systems used a lithium chloride dew point sensor. Current AWOS systems use capacitive relative humidity sensors, from which dew point is calculated. [16]
Maritime identification digits are used by radio communication facilities to identify their home country or base area in digital selective calling (DSC), Automatic Transmitter Identification System (ATIS), and Automatic identification system (AIS) messages as part of their Maritime Mobile Service Identities.
An ATIS may operate through information supplied entirely within the vehicle (autonomous system) or it can also use data supplied by the traffic management centres. Relevant information may include locations of incidents, weather and road conditions, optimal routes, recommended speeds, and lane restrictions, all part of the Intelligent ...
LLWAS anemometers along a runway. A low-level windshear alert system (LLWAS) measures average surface wind speed and direction using a network of remote sensor stations, situated near runways and along approach or departure corridors at an airport.
Currently the technical background section says the following: ATIS systems can be classified as Solid-State and PC-based. Solid-State ATIS systems are microcontroller-powered devices that incorporate speech synthesis and data processing in a single piece of proprietary equipment, while PC-ATIS systems are based on COTS-Hardware, like normal rack-mounted PCs with multiple high-performance ...
Fayetteville Regional Airport covers an area of 1,343 acres (543 ha) at an elevation of 189 feet (58 m) above mean sea level.It has two runways with asphalt surfaces: 4/22 is 7,709 by 150 feet (2,350 x 46 m) and 10/28 is 4,801 by 150 feet (1,463 x 46 m).
