A Practical Weather Forecasting for Air Traffic Control System Using Fuzzy Hierarchical Technique

  • Conference paper
Recent Advances on Soft Computing and Data Mining

Abstract

Due to rapid changes of global climate, weather forecasting has becomes one of the significant research fields. Modern airports maintain high security flight operations through precise knowledge of weather forecasting. The objectives of this research focused on two major parts; the weather forecasting model of an airport system and the fuzzy hierarchical technique used. In general, this research emphasizes on the building blocks of a weather forecasting application that could support Terminal Aerodrome Forecast by utilizing Mamdani model. The developed application considers variables, groups of weather elements, combination of weather elements in a group, web data sources and structured knowledge to provide a profound forecast.
