AWOS (Automated Weather Observation System) The need for fast, accurate and reliable meteorological data at airports is well established, however, the available equipment does not always meet the need. The AWOS 2.01B series from SISTEK LTD. does.

The sensor compliment of the AWOS 2.01B series may include any or all of the following:
• Wind Speed
• Wind Direction
• Temperature
• Dew Point
• Relative Humidity
• Barometric Pressure (QNH, QFE)
• Visibility (MOR, RVR)
• Present Weather (Precipitation Identification)
• Cloud Height and Sky Condition
• Density Altitude
• Runway Surface Sensor
• Lightning/Thunderstorm Detection Other synoptic sensors, such as solar radiation may also be added to the system if required.
