Minimizing disruption to flights during a Volcanic eruption

Volcanic ash presents a global issue for the aviation industry. In recent years volcanic events have resulted in grounded flights around the world for periods up to 30 days. Volcanic ash plumes are subject to long-range transport and are carried over large areas by strong winds, causing major disruption to the global air transport industry. Combining a decade of innovative development Raymetrics provides you with the best ground based remote sensing technology. Our systems detect ash clouds more easily and predict how they might spread, more accurately.
