Honeywell – a proven leader in weather detection technologies.
As the first completely new radar design developed in 15 years, our innovative IntuVue radar system stands alone in the industry as the only automatic radar system that:
- Produces a 3-D display of weather from the ground to 60,000 feet out to 320 nautical miles in front of the aircraft:
- Enables a 26% improvement in weather avoidance decision-making – maximizing passenger comfort and safety, while minimizing fuel consumption.
- Scans and stores the data in a 3-D buffer to recreate a three-dimension image of storm cells
- Displays image in a plan and vertical view that can be vertically dissected in 1,000 feet increments and analyzed by route:
- Along Track
- Selected Azimuth
- Flight Path
- Rose Mode
- Displays image in a plan and vertical view that can be vertically dissected in 1,000 feet increments and analyzed by route:
- Automatically extracts ground returns using our world-renown and proven EGPWS terrain database
- Offers significantly improved reliability at a reduced system weight as compared to other radars:
- Air transport models increase system reliability by 50%, reduce maintenance costs by 30%, and reduce weight by 25% – yielding airlines a $10,000/year savings over existing systems.
- BA models increase system reliability by 50% – reducing associated maintenance costs and operating costs.
- Military models reduce overall installation weight by up to 65% and increase system reliability by a factor of x5 – reducing maintenance costs and supporting mission success.
Additionally, IntuVue technologies are certified by the FAA as the:
- First radar to offer Predictive Windshear Detection and Alerting for aircraft with smaller radar antennas
- First system certified to new enhanced turbulence Minimum Operating Performance Standards (MOPS)
- Reduces turbulence-related incidents by over 45%
