To support air transport efficiency, cost reduction, and safety, a modernization of the global air transport system's view of weather, natural hazard, and related impacts needs to be developed. The modernization will include using data from designated meteorological information service providers, delivered to geographically dispersed air carriers, airport owners, and ATM units. That requires meteorological information to be shared seamlessly with air transport stakeholders to enable informed decision-making. This effort to share the data will obviously necessitate revised or new data exchange formats, standards and protocols, as well as an applied service oriented architecture methodology, enhanced methods of communication, and governance processes.
