Overview
• Objective • Steps to achieve the objective • Measure objective – identify gaps • Correct gaps • Continue monitoring/corrective process • Other • Conclusion
28 August 2014 Page 3
Objective
• Regional OPMET Centre (ROC) in MID Region is necessary in order to assure
– Required OPMET data is available globally – Efficient exchange of OPMET data – Monitoring OPMET data production and exchange – Inter-regional coordination in meeting customer
needs
All necessary for proper flight planning and optimum use of alternate aerodromes reducing flight times, fuel expended, cost and fuel emissions
28 August 2014 Page 4
Objective
• All National OPMET Centres (NOCs) send their national OPMET Data to ROC Jeddah and ROC Bahrain (backup): for Regional and Inter- Regional distribution
– Regional: NOCs in the MID-Region Area of Responsibility (AoR)
– Inter-Regional: to the Inter-Regional OPMET Gateway(s) (IROGs), ex. (...) WS, WC, WV, WA, FA, FV, FK, UA, NO) your State produces and receives
28 August 2014 Page 17
Measure objective
• OPMET monitoring conducted in EUR occurs in February and September each year to identify:
– OPMET data availability as per requirements – OPMET data that should not be distributed – Duplicate bulletins – Multiple OPMET occurrences in various bulletins – Bulletins with mixed contents: required and not-
required data
28 August 2014 Page 18
Correct Gaps
• Based on monitoring results, States to be informed with proposed actions to assure
– OPMET data is available as per requirements – OPMET data not required is not distributed

Serve as translator (IWXXM)
• OPMET will be exchanged in legacy character form and in digital form until 2019
– Requiring a centre to translate from character form to digital form as long as NOCs are not in the position to do it themselfs
– Suggest the ROC or certified centre to perform this role
– Guidance is under development – EUR Data Management Group in coordination with ICAO, WMO and Eurocontrol
28 August 2014 Page 21

Conclusion
• ROC in MID Region is necessary in order to assure
– Required OPMET data is available globally – Efficient exchange of OPMET data – Inter-Regional coordination in meeting customer
needs – Quality monitoring
All necessary for proper flight planning and optimum use of alternate aerodromes reducing flight times, fuel expended, cost and fuel emissions

SMALL SATELLITE MISSIONS : UNISPACE III BACKGROUND PAPER NO. 9
Launch opportunities for small satellites include launch on a
dedicated expendable launch vehicle; launch as a secondary, or “piggyback”, satellite on a large expendable launch
vehicle; launch as one of two spacecraft launched on a dual mission on a single expendable launch vehicle; and
launch carried in one of the small satellites services offered by the Space Shuttle (the so-called “get away specials”
payload bay slots).
45. (...) The small class of expendable launch vehicles has experienced the largest entry
of commercial entrepreneurial activity, both in the United States and abroad over the past few years (including
airborne launchers like Pegasus). (...) Launching two or more small satellites on the same expendable launch vehicle (“dual manifesting”) is a viable
alternative (see para. 50).
