EXECUTIVE ROUNDTABLE SERIESEXECUTIVE ROUNDTABLE SERIES
AirDat LLC has developed and deployed a proprietary atmospheric observing system called TAMDAR (Tropospheric Airborne Meteorological Data Reporting)
The TAMDAR system delivers a unique real-time high resolution data stream for improved atmospheric analysis and weather forecasting
Key components of the system include an aircraft mounted sensor, dedicated global satcom, and ground processing systems
Our satcom solution provides real-time global tracking of aircraft, as well as voice and data communication with each aircraft at all times
This real-time global communication capability is flexible, and allows retrieval of aircraft performance/systems information
The system has been in operation on commercial aircraft since 2004
