Difficulties faced by low altitude flight meteorology

-
Impact on flight routesThe meteorological risks and difficulties faced by low altitude flight (usually referring to airspace below 3000 meters, such as general aviation, drones, helicopters, etc.) are complex and diverse, mainly related to the high dynamics, suddenness, and interaction with ground terrain of low altitude meteorological conditions. The efficiency and scheduling value of low altitude flight industry routes are closely related to meteorology. Complex and changeable meteorological conditions, such as strong wind, rainstorm, heavy fog, etc., will limit the flight speed and altitude of the aircraft, and even force the aircraft to change its route. This not only increases flight time and costs, but may also lead to flight conflicts, affecting the operational efficiency of the entire route network. Strong wind can increase the difficulty and risk of flight, making the control of the aircraft unstable. When flying against the wind, it can increase power or fuel consumption, reduce flight efficiency, and increase operating costs; Sidewinds may cause aircraft to deviate from their intended flight path and even result in structural damage to the aircraft.Limit the flight speed and altitude of aircraftIncrease flight time and costStrong winds make aircraft handling unstableThe tailwind caused the aircraft to deviate from thepredetermined route

Impact on station operationThe meteorological elements that have a significant impact on the operation of the station mainly include wind, air pressure, visibility, and cloud height. Strong winds may affect the safety of aircraft takeoff and landing, and excessive changes in wind speed and direction can increase the difficulty of aircraft control, even causing the aircraft to deviate from the runway. Abnormal changes in air pressure can affect the instrument readings and performance of the aircraft, posing a threat to flight safety. Insufficient visibility can limit the pilot's line of sight and increase the risk of takeoff and landing accidents. If the cloud height is too low, it may prevent the aircraft from obtaining sufficient safe altitude during takeoff and landing, affecting flight operations.Unable to meet the actual monitoring needs

Establish a distributed meteorological monitoring network for flight routes
1. Establish a distributed meteorological monitoring network for flight routes: Establish a distributed meteorological monitoring network in low altitude flight dense areas and key flight routes. This network consists of small, high-precision, and stable meteorological monitoring stations that can collect real-time meteorological data and transmit it to the central server through wireless communication technology. In this way, it can not only make up for the shortcomings of urban infrastructure meteorological services in accuracy and coverage, but also reduce the cost of purchasing and maintaining large meteorological equipment, and improve the efficiency of meteorological equipment investment.

Construction of automated and intelligent observation system
Introduce automated and intelligent meteorological observation systems to reduce reliance on manual observation. The system automatically measures visibility and cloud height, wind direction, wind speed, air pressure, etc. It collects meteorological data in real time through sensors and transmits the data to the meteorological monitoring center at the station. At the same time, equipped with intelligent analysis software, quality control and analysis of observation data are carried out to improve the accuracy and reliability of observation data.

Upgrade of high-precision meteorological monitoring equipment at the station
Install high-precision wind, air pressure, visibility, and cloud height monitoring equipment at the station. For example, cloud height meters using new LiDAR technology can measure cloud height more accurately; Use advanced intelligent ultrasonic wind measurement instruments and intelligent air pressure measurement instruments to improve the accuracy and reliability of observations. At the same time, equipped with the Zhi360 integrated monitoring platform data analysis system, real-time analysis and warning of monitoring data are carried out. When key meteorological elements exceed the safety threshold, timely alerts are issued to station operators and pilots.
