This SAE Aerospace Recommended Practice (ARP) covers the requirements for a Stationary Runway Weather Information System (referred to as the system) to monitor the surface conditions of airfield operational areas to ensure safer ground operations of aircraft. The system provides (1) temperature and condition information of runway, taxiway, and ramp pavements and (2) atmospheric weather conditions that assist airport personnel to maintain safer and more efficient airport operations. The system can be either a wired system or a wireless system.
Rationale
This SAE Aerospace Recommended Practice (ARP) covers the requirements for a Stationary Runway Weather Information System (referred to as the system or RWIS) to monitor the surface conditions of airfield operational areas to ensure safety. The RWIS shall provide (1) temperature and condition information of runway, taxiway, and ramp pavements and (2) provide atmospheric weather information conditions that assist needed airport personnel to maintain safer and more efficient airport operations and maintenance.
ARP5533 has been updated to reflect changes in technology advancements over the past 5 to 10 years. This document now incorporates updated solutions provided by Runway Weather Information System providers that offer more functionality and advanced features to improve the offering and capability of the solution provided to the airport. The goal of this document is to provide a basic set of requirements for an airport (or other) who want to specify and obtain an In-Pavement Runway Weather Information System.
In November 1999, SAE received a request from the FAA to establish a committee that would prepare industry specifications for airport snow and ice control equipment (ASICE). The FAA felt very strongly that the need exists within the international aviation community for an ASICE committee. They are seeking an enhanced process to provide the aviation industry with state-of-the-art specifications. They also see it as a vehicle to allow for rapid response to technological changes.
This request for a new Committee was reviewed and approved by the SAE Aerospace Council. The new committee is designated as G-15, Airport Snow and Ice Control Equipment. G-15 will report to the SAE Aerospace General Projects Division, which falls directly under the SAE Aerospace Council.
* Redlines comparisons are available for those standards
listed in the Revision History that contain a radio button. A
redline comparison of the current version against a revision is
accomplished by selecting the radio button next to the standard and
then selecting 'compare'. At this time, Redline versions only exist
for some AMS standards. SAE will continue to add redline versioning
with ongoing updates to SAE MOBILUS.

Search Tips: Search Operators:AND, OR, NOT; Wild Cards; Using Quotes
SAE MOBILUS® Search Tips
Please note: All terms not contained within quotes, will be evaluated using the OR operator. This means that your search results will contain all results that contain ANY of the entered terms.
AND, OR, NOT
SAE MOBILUS supports the use of the AND, OR and NOT BOOLEAN operators ONLY function with the Advanced Search.
Wild Cards
Using the asterisk, ( * ) allows you to search for a partial word. For example, entering a keyword search of aero* will search for any word beginning with aero.
Using the question mark, ( ? ) allows you to search for a word with a single character wildcard. For example, searching for t?re would match both tire and tyre
Using Quotes
Words in double quotes " " are treated as a phrase. Conducting a search for "heat model" will return all results in which the exact phrase "heat model" is found, while "heat modeling" would NOT be included.
A term combined with a phrase will be joined with an OR operator.
Searching for Standards
When searching for a standard please use the entire Document Number assigned, which includes the abbreviation. A space can be used, or omitted between the abbreviation and number.
