Abstract:The FAA Aviation Weather Research Program (AWRP) funded the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) In-Flight Icing Product Development Team (IFIPDT) to develop an icing diagnosing and forecasting product. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Aviation Weather Testbed (AWT) was tasked to integrate Icing Product Alaska (IPA) into a Graphical Forecasts for Aviation (GFA) infrastructure. The Aviation Weather Demonstration & Evaluation (AWDE) Services team (ANG-C63) was tasked to gather user input regarding the suitability and usability of the IPA Diagnosing (IPA-D) and Forecasting (IPA-F) product in 2017. In 2019, AWDE conducted a second assessment to determine the suitability of IPA-D. AWDE collaborated with the Aviation Weather Center (AWC) Testbed to integrate IPA onto the Graphical Forecasts for Aviation (GFA) platform to provide additional capabilities and features based on the 2017 and 2019 participant feedback. AWDE conducted an in-depth 8 week long assessment (October 5th-November 25th) to determine IPA-D usability and how IPA-D would be used in an operational environment.
