Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue explores the transformative advancements in aviation meteorology, with a particular emphasis on the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) alongside other novel methods and technologies in weather forecasting. Aviation safety and operational efficiency heavily depend on precise and timely weather data, and recent developments in both AI and traditional meteorological techniques are opening new frontiers in this area.
The issue will feature articles that highlight cutting-edge research and practical applications of AI in turbulence forecasting, wind shear detection, and real-time monitoring of hazardous weather conditions, as well as achievements in traditional aviation meteorology. These advances help optimize flight paths, minimize weather-related delays, and improve decision-making processes. In doing so, we aim to foster discussions around enhancing weather prediction accuracy, mitigating weather-related risks, and contributing to safer skies.
By bridging AI-driven innovations and traditional meteorological methods, this Special Issue outlines the future of aviation, focusing on how both AI and other advancements are shaping a safer and more efficient aviation ecosystem.
