Meteorological Accessibility
Statistical analysis of historical weather data to determine operational minimums, evaluate runway accessibility, and optimise airport operations.
Statistical analysis of historical weather data to determine operational minimums, evaluate runway accessibility, and optimise airport operations.
A modern aerodrome is only as effective as its operational availability. At Altitude Nexus, we conduct high-fidelity meteorological accessibility studies, performing statistical analysis on decades of historical METAR/SPECI data to quantify runway usability and identify weather-related capacity constraints.
We calculate the Usability Factor for each runway based on precise crosswind and tailwind components per aircraft type. Our automated analysis of historical weather reports generates detailed wind roses, ensuring your aerodrome meets the ICAO 95% usability requirement for safe operations.
We assess the frequency and duration of low-visibility conditions (LVP), analysing RVR and cloud ceiling data to provide technical evidence for CAT II/III ILS upgrades. Our studies help operators understand the cost-benefit of navigational aid investments based on actual weather statistics.
We quantify the impact of unfavorable meteorological conditions on airport slot capacity. By correlating weather patterns with operational data, we help aerodrome managers anticipate delays and optimize resource allocation during adverse weather events.
