IATA Readies Platform To Share Global Turbulence Information
Turbulence Aware will pool real-time, aircraft-sensed turbulence reports to improve safety and operational efficiency.

The International Air Transport Association (IATA) reports good progress with its plan to establish a global database with real-time pooling and sharing of turbulence data generated by participating airlines during flight operations. The association expects trials of the “Turbulence Aware” platform to start in February and run throughout 2019, followed by a full launch in January 2020.
