3. Plans for the future
On BATOS AWS• No new installation of Batos AWS for Météo France network, only for E-Surfmar
• Substitute CV3F and Young wind sensors by WMT52
• Finish Iridium development using 9602-LP modem. It will allow to use the new format to encode more complete BUFR.
A new AWS for Météo France : PACOME
• A general architecture (land stations, isolated places, airports, ships, buoys…) with specificities for the ships.
• Météo France is in a tendering procedure
• Available for tests in 2013
