Acquisition of PILOTSONDES, Hydrogen Generators and Related Services for The Gambia (примерный перевод: Приобретение PILOTSONDES, генераторы водорода и связанной с ними Услуги для Гамбии) (Гамбия - Тендер #475958)

The overall objective of this project is to improve routine determinations of wind (speed and direction) as function of altitude through the lower and middle troposphere (here referred to as “winds aloft information” or simply “winds aloft”) at three sites in The Gambia:

• Banjul International Airport: Lat: 13.35 deg. North; Lon: 16:63 deg. West; Altitude: 33 meters
• Jenoi: Lat: 13:47 deg. North; Lon: 15:57 deg. West; Altitude: 20 meters
• Basse: Lat: 13:32 deg. North; Lon: 14:22 deg. West; Altitude: 4 Meters

This improvement is accomplished through the use of set combining traditional and new technologies in a system referred to as a PILOTSONDE system, or simply PILOTSONDE. The data provided by the PILOTSONDE will aid weather forecasters in the Gambian Department of Water Resources in forecasting the potential for severe or hazardous weather conditions and assist that nation’s aviation meteorologists in determining the potential for low and mid-level wind shear over the designated aerodromes. (In this specification, PILOTSONDE (all upper case) refers to the system as whole, whereas pilotsonde (all lower case) refers to the small instrument package that is carried aloft.)
