Abstract

Aviation and flight management are strictly influenced by environmental conditions. Greater variability of the climate and the atmospheric phenomena carries greater risks for air navigation and increase cancellations and delay. An increase in the frequency and intensity of storms, torrential rains, hailstorms, fog, wind gusts, and other meteorological events may lead to a reduction in flight times and from a design point of view an increase in the weight of the aircraft, to counteract higher loads in operation. All of this could produce rising management and operational costs, as well as a reduction in profit. The instruments for remote monitoring as satellites, ground stations, and other technologies allow to collect data about several climate parameters such as temperature, humidity, rainfalls, wind patterns, etc. This data could be analyzed to obtain useful information to improve flights managements and airport services. Moreover, Artificial intelligence (AI) can be used to elaborate this information in real-time. This it makes possible to have more accurate forecasts and update the mathematical model for weather forecasting.
