Flight is an activity that is very vulnerable to weather conditions. The accuracy of weather information strongly supports flight activities. The effects of bad weather on flights include flight delays and flight cancellations. Based on data on flight delays from the Directorate General of Air Transportation of the Ministry of Transportation from January to March 2019 at Husein Sastranegara Airport, it is known that 20-30% of flight delays are caused by weather constraints. To estimate flight delays based on weather forecasts, weather data analysis is carried out to determine the type of weather that is endangering flights and causing flight delays. The analysis was carried out using the K-NN and Random Forest algorithms

The implementation of Trajectory-Based Operations, invented by the Single European Sky Air Traffic Management Research program SESAR, enables airlines to fly along optimized waypoint-less trajectories and accordingly to significantly increase the sustainability of the air transport system in a business with increasing environmental awareness. However, unsteady weather conditions and uncertain weather forecasts might induce the necessity to re-optimize the trajectory during the flight. By considering a re-optimization of the trajectory during the flight they further support air traffic control towards achieving precise air traffic flow management and, in consequence, an increase in airspace and airport capacity. However, the re-optimization leads to an increase in the operator and controller’s task loads which must be balanced with the benefit of the re-optimization. From this follows that operators need a decision support under which circumstances and how often a trajectory re-optimization should be carried out. Local numerical weather service providers issue hourly weather forecasts for the coming hour. Such weather data sets covering three months were used to re-optimize a daily A320 flight from Seattle to New York every hour and to calculate the effects of this re-optimization on fuel consumption and deviation from the filed path. Therefore, a simulation-based trajectory optimization tool was used. Fuel savings between 0.5% and 7% per flight were achieved despite minor differences in wind speed between two consecutive weather forecasts in the order of 0.5 m s−1. The calculated lateral deviations from the filed path within 1 nautical mile were always very small. Thus, the method could be easily implemented in current flight operations. The developed performance indicators could help operators to evaluate the re-optimization and to initiate its activation as a new flight plan accordingly.

In this fast growing world as airplanes continue flying, flight delays are the part of the experience. According to the Bureau Of Statistics(BOS), about 20% of all flights are delayed by 15 minutes or more. Flight delays causes a negative impact, mainly economical for airport authorities, commuters and airline industries as well. Furthermore, in the domain of sustainability, it can even cause environmental harm by the rise in fuel consumption and gas emissions and also some of the important factors including adverse weather conditions, preparing the aircraft, fixing of mechanical issue, getting security clearance, etc. Hence, these are the factors which indicates the necessity it has become to predict the delays of airline problems. To carry out the predictive analysis, which includes a range of statistical techniques from machine learning, this studies historical and current data to make predictions about the future delays, taking help of Regression Analysis using regularization technique used in Python.

Abstract The weather has a major impact on the profitability, safety, and environmental sustainability of the routes sailed by seagoing vessels. The prevailing weather strongly influences the course of routes, affecting not only the safety of the crew, but also the fuel consumption and therefore the emissions of the vessel. Effective decision support is required to plan the route and the speed of the vessel considering the forecasted weather. We implement a genetic algorithm to minimize the fuel consumption of a vessel taking into account the two most important influences of weather on a ship: the wind and the waves. Our approach assists route planners in finding cost minimal routes that consider the weather, avoid specified areas, and meet arrival time constraints. Furthermore, it supports ship speed control to avoid areas with weather conditions that would result in high fuel costs or risk the safety of the vessel. The algorithm is evaluated for a variety of instances to show the impact of weather routing on the routes and the fuel and travel time savings that can be achieved with our approach. Including weather into the routing leads to a savings potential of over 10% of the fuel consumption. We show that ignoring the weather when constructing routes can lead to routes that cannot be sailed in practice. Furthermore, we evaluate our algorithm with stochastic weather data to show that it can provide high-quality routes under real conditions even with uncertain weather forecasts.

Abstract Many factors affect the extent to which forecasts inform emergency responses. In a survey based on the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB), 207 U.S. emergency managers (EMs) were asked about 1) their past and intended future use of short-term weather forecasts and recorded weather data, 2) the perceived limitations and 3a) their attitude toward the usefulness of such weather information, 3b) their attitude toward their job and toward uncertainty, 4) perceived social norms, and 5) self-assessed numeracy. Work experience was found to be the best predictor of whether an emergency manager relied on recorded weather data and short-term weather forecasts in the past or intends to do so in the future. Among TPB variables, mainly social expectations and data attitude drive the reliance on recorded weather data and short-term forecasts. The EMs’ perception of the weather information’s limitations is related to their perceptions of what their social surroundings think. In sum, this article sheds light on when and why EMs use weather data and forecasts and how training can be improved.

Abstract During the coldest months of the year, weather systems bring a variety of winter weather to most of the continental United States in the form of snow, sleet, and freezing rain, which along with strong winds, low clouds, and reduced visibilities may create dangerous conditions. These weather conditions can result in major disruptions in air travel, leading to delays and cancellations of hundreds or thousands of flights, thus affecting the plans of millions of travelers. To assess the specific meteorological factors that prompt flight delays and cancellations in the Midwest region of the United States during wintertime, a comprehensive study was performed on nine of the largest airports (by passenger boardings) in the area. Flight delay and cancellation data from 11 winter seasons (2005–06 to 2015–16) were collected from the Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS) and analyzed along with climatological data from the National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI). A classification scheme was developed, and each flight was categorized according to the meteorological factor that could have prompted its delay. The results of the study revealed that visibility was the main meteorological factor affecting midwestern airports, with low ceilings as a close second. Blizzards were the main cause for flight cancellations.

<p>The paper presents performance and energy saving analysis of 1.25 kWp grid connected Photovoltaic system under difference weather condition in West Sumatera.  The measured data were performed during weather data that often occur in West Sumatra i.e. sunny, overcast, raining and cloudy. The synchronizing process successfully done even bad weather conditions when sunlight was low automatically. Photovoltaic in average start producing power from 7:00 AM to 6:00 PM for normal or clear sky, however under overcast, raining and cloudy weather, the PV power decreased and disconnected earlier before sunset. During intermittent raining, overcast and cloud covered the PV power output show an irregular profile. The PV energy saving performed for three residential connection cases: 1300 VA, 900 VA with subsidized and 900 VA without subsidized. The solar PV installation have more benefits and energy saving for 1300 VA, 900 VA without subsidized with payback period around 8.5 years. However, the 900 VA with subsidized take longer 20.8 years, but still in PV lifespan 25 years. In the future, household subsidies may be reduced or eliminated, the solar energy will be viable alternative of energy resources when it can produce electricity at a cost equivalent to utility grid PLN rate. </p>

Rain removal from pictures taken under bad weather conditions is a challenging task that aims to improve the overall quality and visibility of a scene. The enhanced images usually constitute the input for subsequent Computer Vision tasks such as detection and classification. In this paper, we present a Convolutional Neural Network, based on the Pix2Pix model, for rain streaks removal from images, with specific interest in evaluating the results of the processing operation with respect to the Optical Character Recognition (OCR) task. In particular, we present a way to generate a rainy version of the Street View Text Dataset (R-SVTD) for "text detection and recognition" evaluation in bad weather conditions. Experimental results on this dataset show that our model is able to outperform the state of the art in terms of two commonly used image quality metrics, and that it is capable to improve the performances of an OCR model to detect and recognise text in the wild.
