DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis report summarizes current processes and information sources used when convective weather impacts Air Traffic Control (ATC) operations at the Air Traffic Control System Command Center (ATCSCC) and Kansas City Air Route Traffic Control Center (ARTCC). In addition, user needs for convective weather forecast products are presented. ACT-32O collected information from both facilities through site visits and interviews during the early summer of 2000. Based upon collected information, it is recommended that the integration of a convective weather forecast capability, for example, the National Convective Weather Forecast (NCWF), into the Traffic Situation Display (TSD) be investigated. In addition, further research should be conducted to extend the forecase period of current automated forecast products.
