GTG-4: Better Turbulence Forecasts, Smoother Rides
Turbulence causes most in-flight injuries, costs extra fuel, and is projected to worsen—with severe Clear Air Turbulence (CAT) potentially tripling in coming decades. Learn how NCAR’s fourth-generation Graphical Turbulence Guidance (GTG-4) algorithm improves turbulence prediction by blending multi-model ensemble diagnostics for sharper, more accurate forecasts, distinguishing Clear Air, Mountain Wave, and Convective Turbulence to guide mitigation, using Eddy Dissipation Rate (EDR) to verify predictions across aircraft types, and producing tighter Flight Plan Guidance volumes to help dispatchers route around rough air efficiently.

Beyond Legacy Systems: Maverick Dispatch & Ground Ops
Legacy operational tools weren’t built for modern aviation pressures. Discover how Maverick Dispatch™ and Maverick Ground Ops™ elevate your operational control for systems like Fusion and EIS. We’ll cover innovations in contextual workflows, like Smart NOTAM summaries, surface visualizations, and route vertical profile, as well as proprietary insights that safeguard operational continuity on the ground and in the air, like real-time de-icing alerts, single-site radar, and capacity prediction.
Speakers: Chris Oak & Emily Schofield, The Weather Company
