ACARS Decoder
IMPORTANT: If you haven't already done so, be sure to read the
overview document that contains information
relevant to all of the NCEP decoders!
The NCEP ACARS Decoder parses WMO
BUFR messages
containing ACARS (Aircraft Communications Addressing and
Reporting System) data
into the NCEP Decoder Interface Format. These
ACARS BUFR messages are provided to the NWS and other members of the
meteorological community under contract from
ARINC, a private-sector firm
whose mention here is for informational purposes only and in no way
implies nor constitutes an endorsement on the part of the NWS nor any other U.S.
government agency.
