Doc 9377: Manual on Coordination between Air Traffic Services, Aeronautical Information Services and Aeronautical Meteorological Services

The aim of this manual is to make available to States information and guidance - based on practical experience - concerning ways and means of improving the coordination between area control centers/flight information centers (ACCs/FICs) and their associated meteorological watch offices (MWOs). It also contains information on relevant modern methods employed by States, in particular in respect of the provision to air traffic services (ATS) units, of weather radar data and of meteorological information required by flights below flight level 100. In addition, the manual provides information on coordination between search and rescue units and meteorological offices.
