Title:
Weather Cameras for Flight Planning - 2025 NW Aviation Conference
Topic:
Weather Cameras - A Critical Tool for Flight Planning
Brief Description:
The FAA Weather Camera Program has added a dimension to weather reporting for general aviation. A constellation of cameras located at airports and other key locations, capturing images every ten minutes, is enhancing our ability to assess the weather. Made available at a growing number of locations across the country, this information source should be a part of every pilot’s pre-flight planning routine. This presentation will give an overview of the system, share examples of how it can augment conventional AWOS and ASOS reports, and provide a look at ways the system could be further enhanced to increase aviation safety.
