Runway Visual Range (RVR) is critical information for pilots and airports. Download eBook Download RVR eBook Few types of data are as important to airports and pilots as Runway Visual Range (RVR). Without accurate and reliable visibility information, airports risk not being able to operate runways safely — and at full capacity — in all weather conditions. For categorized airports, an accurate RVR assessment is the most essential factor for enabling air traffic control (ATC) and pilots to make the correct operational decisions. ICAO documented the importance of RVR as far back as the 1970s, and today it requires automated RVR assessment at all CAT II and CAT III airports. ICAO also recommends it to CAT I airports, many of which readily adopt it for its operational benefits and safety impact. An airport's decision about what kind of RVR solution to use is especially important. This solution guide offers context and education that can help — as well as a customizable, all-in-one solution suitable for any airport.
