Meteorology

The purpose is to create a shared understanding of weather-related or delayed

conditions that may affect flight safety.

The Global Reporting Format is primarily used to describe runway conditions

(e.g., ice, snow, water

on the runway) and

weather conditions,

allowing pilots and air

traffic controllers to

quickly obtain precise
information about the

actual conditions at a

given airport.

Below is how the runway is assessed in the GRF format:

Pilots are informed

of the RCR content
through SNOWTAM

or, in summer

conditions with

STANDING WATER,

via a NOTAM and

directly from the

ATS unit, including

ATIS.
