Subject: More data (New FSL ACARS Information Forum Post 1144)

A new message, "More data," was posted on the FSL ACARS Information Forum
(http://acweb.fsl.noaa.gov/oper/forum/)  by Bill Moninger on  10 Feb 00, 11:26

The message reads as follows:

=====================================================================


Thanks to the good work of Leslie Ewy of FSL's Facility Division, we are now
decoding two additional data formats: one from UPS and one from American.

The net result of this is an approximately 50% increase in daily ACARS data, to
about 72,000 observations per day world-wide and 62,000 obs per day over the
Contiguous US.  Most of the increase is in en-route reports; several aircraft
are reporting every minute.  These show up as essentially solid lines on the
web display.

There are few new airports involved in this increase (and most of those are in
Europe), but time coverage should be improved.

The new software started generating the data shown on the web pages and
downloadable via the web at 1730Z today.  It will be several days before the
new software is running on the process that creates the data that is available
over LDM.
