. C H A P T E R 8 COMMUNICATIONS 8.1 General The RMTN (Regional Meteorological telecommunication Network) will be the basic communication system for the interchange of warnings, forecasts and observations among members. It is implemented through the International Satellite Communications System (ISCS) operated by the National Weather Service of the USA. The RMTN is a multipoint system via satellite utilizing two - way and one-way very small aperture terminal (VSAT) antenna and microcomputer - based systems. It will carry GTS data and products along with the world Area Forecast System (WAFS) products in GRIB (gridded binary), fax, and alpha - numeric data formats. The user terminals include the necessary software application to handle binary information Other communication systems are in place to complement the ISCS and are an integral part of the RMTN. These include the Emergency Managers Weather Information Network (EMWIN), the GOES Satellite Data Collection Platform (DCP), and the ICAO Aeronautical Fixed telecommunication Network (AFTN). Several alternate mechanisms for data exchange exist which use the Internet and TCP/IP technologies being implemented by RTH Washington, including HTTP and FTP servers, E-mail Data Ingest Systems, RTH Web-based Bulletin Input, FTP Input Service and Dial-up Data Input. A list containing telephone numbers of national Meteorological Service and homes of key officials is given in attachment 8A. 8.2 Procedures to be followed WMO communications headings, station location identifiers, and international block and station index numbers will be used to send surface and upper-air observations. 8.3 Tropical cyclone warning headings Tropical cyclone warning headings to be used by Members are listed in Attachment 8B. Headings to be used by the USA for tropical/subtropical cyclone releases are listed in Attachments 8 C and 8D. ____________________ ATTACHMENT 8 B / ADJUNTO 8 B
