The Meteorological Data Collection and Reporting System(MDCRS) is designed to support improved weather forecasting, particularly for upper-air wind and severe weather. First developed for the Federal Aviation Administration and the National Weather Service in 1991, the system collects and organizes up to 28, 000 real time, automated position and weather reports per day from participating aircraft. The data is then forewarded to the NWS World Area Forecasting Center in Maryland, USA, where it's used as input for their predictive weather models. 2, record 14, English, - Meteorological%20Data%20Collection%20and%20Reporting%20System
