ICAO AN 3:2018 PDF Download

The requirements for providing meteorological services for international air navigation are set down in Annex 3 of the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO). This standard's primary goal is to guarantee the security, effectiveness, and regularity of air transport by providing pertinent meteorological data to various aviation stakeholders. These include, among others, operators, members of the flight crew, air traffic services units, search and rescue teams, and airport management.

Close coordination and cooperation between the producers and consumers of meteorological information are essential to achieving this. The standard acknowledges the significance of creating efficient channels of communication between the providers of meteorological services and the receivers of this information. In order to support decision-making processes and operational actions linked to air navigation, it is important to make sure that the appropriate information is shared in a timely manner.
