MeteorologicalAerodromeTrendForecast

MeteorologicalAerodromeTrendForecast

Meteorological conditions for trend forecasting at an aerodrome. This class is also related but not identical to MeteorologicalAerodromeForecast which is reported on a TAF - conditions reported in trend forecasts in METAR/SPECI differ from forecast groups in a TAF. When no clouds of operational significance or no weather of operational significance is predicted, the NothingOfOperationalSignificance nilReason should be used for the cloud or presentWeather association. When no clouds were detected by the automatic observing system, the NotDetectedByAutoSystem nilReason should be used for the cloud association.

AIRM Concept Definition
HorizontalVisibility.prevailingVisibility The greatest visibility value, observed in accordance with the definition of visibility", which is reached within at least half the horizon circle or within at least half of the surface of the aerodrome. These areas could comprise contiguous or non-contiguous sectors."

prevailingVisibilityOperator

MeteorologicalAerodromeTrendForecast.prevailingVisibilityOperator

The reported relational operator for the prevailing horizontal visibility. When reported, this operator is reported in conjunction with prevailing visibility. To report a prevailing visibility of at least 10000 meters, prevailing visibility is reported as 10000 meters and the operator is reported as above".
