• Description:
  The Quality Assessment Product Development Team (QA PDT) was tasked with assessing the recent upgrade of the Convective Weather Avoidance Model (CWAM) Weather Avoidance Field (WAF). The purpose of this assessment was to measure the performance of this recent upgrade; the current version of the CWAM WAF is used operationally in aviation forecast systems (e.g., the Route Availability Planning Tool and the Dynamic Routes for Arrivals in Weather system).
