BHANSA introduced an upgraded forecasting meteorological system in operational use

On the night of November 04/05 2020, after accepting the change in the functional system by the BH Directorate of Civil Aviation (BHDCA), BHANSA introduced an upgraded meteorological system for the work of forecasters, which enables the reception of meteorological information, satellite images and bulletins. In the implementation of this important project for air navigation safety, the replacement of hardware critical components was performed, namely two central MSS servers at the location of the Area Control Center (ACC) / Operational Unit (ATCU II) in Banja Luka and workstations of forecasters of Meteorological Watch Office (BHMET) in Banja Luka and Approach and Aerodrome Control Unit Sarajevo. In addition, the updated Messir software was installed on MSS servers and forecast workstations, and the configuration of the system itself was changed. The new hardware is connected to the existing BHANSA network infrastructure which transmits text messages and satellite images.

In addition to the above functionalities, the upgraded meteorological system enabled the full implementation of Amendment no. 78 to ICAO Annex 3 "Meteorological Services", ie that BHANSA sends information in international exchange in IWXXM 3.0 message format.

As part of the project, the prognostic MET staff, as well as the aeronautical engineering staff, successfully completed the factory and conversion training of the manufacturer (Corobor System), and BHANSA employees participated in the project at all its locations.

Particularly significant to the implementation of this project is the fact that it was implemented on time despite the COVID-19 pandemic, which had a very negative impact on the entire aviation industry, including air navigation service providers, including BHANSA.
