| Abstract | A 259-meter windline, with horizontal and vertical single-axis anemometers mounted on 9-meter poles, was installed at the Dallas/Ft. Worth Airport under the approach to Runway 17C, as part of NASA's Aircraft VOrtex Spacing System (AVOSS) development program. Real-time processing algorithms were developed that based the vortex detection threshold on the turbulence level. Data from more than 70,000 landings have been recorded and processed. This report documents the current state of algorithm development and provides processed data for other researchers to analyze. |
