GM1 Article 12 Weather information service

• ED Decision 2022/022/R found in: U-space (2021/664) (May 2024)

GM1 Article 12 Weather information service ED Decision 2022/022/R GENERAL (a) The USSP collects the weather information necessary to support UAS operational decisions in a specific U-space airspace and supports the provision of other U-space services, such as the UAS flight authorisation service. (b) It is recognised that the weather information service intended for UAS operations is different from that provided by today’s meteorological service providers, especially when it comes to UAS operations in the ‘open’ and ‘specific’ category. UAS may fly near buildings and in areas where current aeronautical meteorological information is not always provided. Therefore, [Article 12](#_DxCrossRefBm1226739982) of [Regulation (EU) 2021/664](https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/?uri=CELEX%3A32021R0664&qid=1708345007812) specifies the minimum content of weather information to be available for the purpose of UAS operations. It does not exclude the possibility that current aeronautical meteorological service providers may also provide this service.
