Many international and Canadian communities have developed heat alert and response systems (HARS) to adapt to extreme heat and protect human health. A HARS aims to reduce heat-related illnesses and deaths by alerting the public when temperatures are a risk to human health and activating community responses to help vulnerable populations, including providing individuals with information to help them take protective measures before and during the heat event.

De nombreuses collectivités internationales et canadiennes ont mis au point des systèmes d'avertissement et d'intervention en cas de chaleur (SAIC) afin de s'adapter à la chaleur accablante et de protéger la santé humaine. Ce type de systèmes vise à réduire les maladies et les décès liés à la chaleur en avertissant le public quand les températures mettent à risque la santé humaine et en activant des interventions communautaires pour aider les populations vulnérables, notamment en informant les gens sur les mesures de protection qui peuvent être prises avant et pendant la période de chaleur.

Crossbow [TM] Technology, Inc. ... introduced its new AHRS500GA solid-state attitude and heading reference system for general aviation ... Crossbow's AHRS500GA is a strap-down subsystem that delivers heading measurements with dynamic accuracy of +/- 2.0 and static accuracy of +/- 1.5. Attitude accuracy is less than +/- 0.5 degrees (static) and +/- 2.0 degrees (dynamic). Range is +/- 180 degrees. The system features the industry's highest performing sensors, including advanced MEMs accelerometers and rate gyros that provide much higher reliability than traditional spinning mass gyros.

CONT

Une centrale moderne d'attitude et de cap [...] ressemble beaucoup à une centrale inertielle de navigation qui ne fournirait que les assiettes et le cap, et dont les gyroscopes et les accéléromètres seraient de performances modestes : 1 à 10 degrés par heure pour les gyroscopes et quelques millièmes de la pesanteur pour les accéléromètres. La centrale d'attitude et de cap peut être à cardans ou à composants liés [...] et utiliser des gyroscopes mécaniques ou des gyrolasers.

OBS

centrale de cap et de verticale; AHRS : terme et abréviation uniformisés par le Comité d'uniformisation de la terminologie aéronautique (CUTA) - Opérations aériennes.
