Properties:

Properties Definition Type
AUTOMATED_SURFACE_OBSERVING_SYSTEM Automated sensor suites that are designed to serve meteorological and aviation observing needs.

enum value

STANDALONE_WEATHER_SENSOR A standalone weather sensor.

enum value

RUNWAY_VISUAL_RANGE_SYSTEM System for measuring runway visual range.

enum value

LOW_LEVEL_WIND_SHEAR_ALERT_SYSTEM A Low level wind shear alert system 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.

enum value

JUNEAU_AIRPORT_WIND_SYSTEM AWS generates turbulence alerts every minute for hazardous areas in the vicinity of Juneau airport.

enum value

AUTOMATED_WEATHER_SENSOR_SYSTEM An advanced AWOS system. It utilizes the complex National Weather Service ASOS algorithms for data processing and distribution.

enum value

AUTOMATED_WEATHER_OBSERVING_SYSTEM Automated Weather Observing System (AWOS) is a fully configurable airport weather system that provides continuous, real time information and reports on airport weather conditions. AWOS stations are mostly operated, maintained and controlled by aviation service providers.
