Hello,

The GAFOR data of  Italian Air Force is publicly available at the page


For raw data they can be contaced at aerosquadra.sm.met@am.difesa.it (see also http://www.meteoam.it/page/come-contattarci, in Italian, of course)

What about integrating Italian GAFOR in SD?

Regards,



Massimo Belloni

Hi, there hasn't been any news, but that is an interesting link, thanks. I've spent some time looking at it because the way the Italians publish GAFOR appears to be more complex than other countries. The examples they give make sense, and we could decode them, but just look at the current bulletin below.

FBIY61 LIIB 270500
GAFOR LIIB 270612
BBBB 1/7, 8N/13 O
BBBB 8S D3 TSRA=

This looks to me (unless I am misunderstanding) like they've divided zone 8 into N and S parts, which does not fit the GAFOR format at all. I'll keep an eye on the forecasts to see how they look for a couple of days.

It appears that this is the case indeed. Unfortunately, I have no further information about that, but still hope that the GAFOR will make it into SkyDemon eventually -thanks a lot for all you do!
