*AIRAC Cycle: every 28 days, on Thursdays

Registration of OPMET changes for AFS distribution

AIRAC 1: DMG FP collection of OPMET change proposals

AIRAC 1 + 7 Days: DMG FP eMail EUR publication of

received change proposals

AIRAC 1 + 14 Days: Delibaration of proposed changes

AIRAC 1 + 21 Days: DMG FP AIRAC METNO Bulletin with

accepted changes via AFS and eMail

AIRAC 2 = AIRAC 1 + 28 Days: Accepted OPMET changes to

become operational for distribution on AFS

31 May - 2 June 2016 IWXXM Workshop - ICAO Paris 5

*AIRAC METNO Bulletin: NOBX99 EBBR

An OPMET Bulletin: TTAAii CCCC, includes either a SIGMET

report, a GAMET report, an AIRMET report, an AIREP

report, SPECI/METAR observations, or TAF reports.

ADDRPT / RMVRPT: for adding or removing METAR

observations and TAF reports from an existing bulletin

NEWBUL / DELBUL: for the introduction or deletion of

OPMET bulletins

NEWTIM / DELTIM: for changes to the TAF Validity Period

or the METAR Observation Times of all reports in a bulletin

*OPMET Data Routing in EUR ICAO Region Considering the Belgian OPMET Data as an example:

Belgium (ICAO=EB.., WMO A1A2=BX) in ROC EGGY Area of Resonsibility

Meteo EBBR collects/compiles/sends all (TTBXii EBBR)-data to ROC EGGY

ROC/IROG EGGY routes (TTBXii EBBR)-data to

Other EUR ROCs: LOWM and LFLF for dissemination to EUR NOCs and None-EUR ICAO-Regions in their AoR

EGGY AoR Regions: ASI-, CAR-, NAM-, NAT-, PAC-, SAM-ICAO IROGs

(Regional + Inter-Regional) distribution = Global distribution

*The EUR ROC/IROGs Inter-Regional AoR EGGY: ASI, CAR, NAM, NAT, PAC, SAM

LFLF: AFI

LOWM: MID

EUR METNO Procedure applicable in other ICAO

Regions?

*ICAO METNO Procedure: Benefits (major)

Regional OPMET Data catalogues: AOP and Non-AOP

Data verification and validation at the origin

Optimised AFS distribution: dupes, volumes

definable, traceable problems, …

Transparant OPMET Regional/Inter-Regional routing

OPMET data quality monitoring

*ICAO METNO Procedure: Possible issues (major) For the ICAO Regions: NOC/ROC/IROG,FP equivalent organisation.

Inter-Regional transition AFTN/CIDIN towards AMHS transition.

Inter-Regional Routing schemas to be identified and to be optimised.

AOP and Non-AOP OPMET data in dedicated Bulletins.

Revisit the WMO-No. 386, Part II Section 2.3.2 for the routing determination by the TTAAii-Bulletin Number.

One-time-off Regional OPMET data programme list of current OPMET data for regularisation by means of the ICAO OPMET Data Update procedure.

The AIRAC-Cycle not flexible enough to process intermediate changes, also in prospect of IWXXM emerging.

IROGs Have to review their OPMET data routing processes 1) for the Inter-Regional exchange and 2) for the Regional distribution via the ROCs.

*The EUR OPMET Data Update Procedure shall

be enabled for the introduction of IWXXM data

that is to be distributed in parallel of the TAC

formatted OPMET data

*Identification of the OPMET data programme to

be transferred to IWXXM

*Optimisation of WMO OPMET TAC-Code

adherence in favour of the transition and

translation to IWXXM
