Weather reports for private airmen

SMHI's mission is to manage and develop information on weather, water and climate that provides knowledge and advanced decision-making data for public services, the private sector and the general public.

In order to make last minute weather information available for private airmen, SMHI procured an IVR service from Voxway where text based weather reports are sent over FTP to Voxway's system. When a user calls the service he/she is able to select area of interest and hear an overview and/or detailed information about the local weather, read out by a synthetic voice.

The service was initially procured in 2003 and a similar solution in 2006 with competition from more than 10 companies.
