Making informed decisions is crucial for preparedness and safety in weather and climate-related activities. The need to monitor and manage natural resources, such as precipitation/water, and extreme weather events, has underscored the importance of precise atmospheric measurements, which have significant implications for operations and decision-making.

Well-defined integrated measurement systems and data analysis tools can support the decision-making process for weather forecasters and operations managers. This session will explore the available measurement systems that can guide operations and decision-making, including the designs of these systems and results from their deployments.
