DATA MANAGEMENT FROM MOBILE METEOROLOGICAL STATIONS FOR GENERAL AVIATION AND STATE INTEGRATED RESCUE SYSTEM

Abstract

The article deals with the problem of obtaining objective meteorological information for general aviation, which also includes the aviation component of the Integrated Rescue System of the Slovak Republic. The article aims to present a possible solution to the insufficient meteorological coverage of various parts of Slovakia, which would be inexpensive, and easy to install, with the possibility of subsequent sharing of data for the needs of the decision-making process in the environment of crisis management in emergencies, and at the same time would provide relevant data in normal aviation practice. The article identifies the specific needs of general aviation meteorological assurance based on the prevailing mode of flying in this segment of aviation. Based on this analysis, the article's authors describe the meteorological system used for educational purposes at the Aviation Faculty of the Technical University in Košice and propose a system for processing and further managing meteorological data obtained from this type of meteorological station. At the same time, the article mentions data-flow management, which ensures the sharing of data with other airspace users, which adds socio-economic benefits to the entire system in the form of increasing the level of flight safety and more efficient planning of flight routes. The article also deals with the case of providing crisis management, and metrological information from critical places, namely the operational deployment of mobile meteorological devices in areas with a declared emergency.
