IMS4 AWOS | AUTOMATED WEATHER OBSERVATION SYSTEM
IMS4 Automated Weather Observation System is an airport weather observation system for regional, national and international airports.
The IMS AWOS measures, processes, stores, presents and communicates all meteorological data at the airport: measurements produced by variety of meteorological sensors, manual observations, WMO codes received from GTS and AFTN. It provides the weather data to observers, air traffic control, pilots and other users in form of real-time screens, graphs, WMO codes, alarms and voice reports. It interfaces upper air systems, low level windshear alert system and radars.
- INTEGRATES ALL AIRPORT WEATHER DATA
- SCALABLE UP TO ICAO CATEGORY CAT III
- CONFORMS TO THE ICAO AND WMO REGULATIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
- AWOS DATA ON THE NET
IMS4 HELIDECK MONITORING SYSTEM
Built on the modular and field proven IMS4 AWOS platform, IMS4 Helideck is optimized to provide real-time weather conditions and monitoring of the helideck motion, thus ensuring the flight and passenger safety.
The weather parameters monitored include wind speed and direction, air and sea temperature, relative humidity, barometric pressure, visibility and present weather, cloud height and wave height. In addition, the IMS4 Helideck monitors the helideck’s heave, heave velocity, roll, pitch and inclination in real-time. The automatically generated helideck reports can be disseminated through various communication channels or optionally broadcast to pilots via VHF transceiver.

IMS4 LLWAS | LOW LEVEL WINDSHEAR ALERT SYSTEM
IMS4 Observer Workstation is the version of Integrated Meteorological System application software designed to interface the automatic weather station MicroStep-MIS AMS 111 model or a 3rd party data logger.
It performs continuous measurement and/or data collection from the connected automatic weather station, data processing (quality control, recalculations), and archiving. IMS4 provides the user with the real-time screen displaying the current data, as well as modules for data export into Microsoft Excel / OpenOffice. Org Calc, and for displaying the data time series in the form of charts.
- UCAR PHASE-3 LLWAS ALGORITHM COMPLIANCE
