Influence assessment of physical and geographical conditions for flat terrain on flight visibility
Introduction. A flight visibility model is presented that takes into account the nature of the underlying surface, the height of the flat terrain, and the dynamics of the aircraft flight due to changes in altitude and ground speed during aerial work. Materials and Methods. Hourly microring weather maps of the Central Russian Plain of the Moscow air hub were used. The research methodology is based on constructing a flight visibility model, taking into account the factors influencing it, including the terrain and the nature of the underlying surface. Results and their Discussion. Flight visibility significantly depends on the nature of the underlying surface, as well as on the elevation of the terrain relative to the departure point at a distance of up to 150 km. The influence of the elevation of the terrain relative to the departure point is 30% more significant than the influence of the nature of the underlying surface. Conclusions. The use of the constructed flight visibility model, which takes into account the influencing physical and geographical conditions, the nature of the underlying surface, the height of the relief of flat terrain under low clouds, will make it possible to make weather-dependent decisions through the use of an intelligent meteorological system, which leads to the improvement of meteorological support for flights during aviation operations.
