Visits 2 World: Hong Kong Airport

The WTWS System was accepted by the Hong Kong Government on 17 July 1997, after 44 months of research and development. The $16 million project included basic and applied research on wind flow over Hong Kong's rugged terrain, a scientific field study, warning system concept and feasibility studies, system design, construction, implementation and training. The program was managed by B. Donaldson, Weather Information and Technologies, Inc. (WITI), R. Wagoner and W. Mahoney, both of NCAR/RAP.
