NAVIAIR
CONTRACTS GWDI FOR NEW GRIB DATA ACQUISITION SYSTEM
Monterey, California, USA, September 29, 2005.
GWDI announces that Naviair has contracted GWDI for the implementation
of a new system supporting the acquisition of binary meteorological
data from the Danish Meteorological Institute (DMI).
DMI has recently changed the data delivery procedures for
GRIB data making the data only available as a download through
the Internet. The DATMAS Air Traffic Management System
supplied by Thales ATM requires GRIB data for global wind
and temperature aloft data. The DATMAS system does not
support this new Internet interface.
Naviair approached GWDI about implementing a GRIB data collection
system for the DATMAS system. The GRIB system will be
hosted on a pair of Intel-based computer servers running the
Linux OS.
