PROJECT OBJECTIVE
Meteorological information system
The Rozas Airborne Research Center (CIAR) is located in Castro de Rei (Lugo). This Center is a joint initiative of INTA and the Xunta de Galicia through the Galician Innovation Agency (GAIN), the Galician Institute for Economic Promotion (IGAPE) and the current Ministry of Economy, Industry and Competitiveness (MEIC). It is part of the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF).
It is a pioneering Test Center, where both the Aerial Research Platforms (RPL) and the new developments with remotely piloted airborne systems (RPAS) are intended to be integrated. This research center offers the infrastructures and ground equipment necessary for the development of the aircraft and the evaluation of the campaigns to be carried out with them, carrying out the flights in an efficient and safe manner.
As part of the equipment needed to start up the center, it was essential to acquire a meteorological information system on nearby surface observation networks, such as regional or local networks, that met minimum quality standards, including pre-processing the information and determining whether the databases were reliable. In addition, we wanted to have possible meteorological information at altitude, in case wind profilers or meteorological sounders had been installed in nearby locations.

RESULTS AND ACHIEVEMENTS
Management of generated images
The proposed capture system generates a large amount of information and in order for it to be manageable. It is essential to have software that manages the videos, images and geographic information generated as efficiently and quickly as possible.
It not only deals with the management of the information generated, but also with the interlocution with the transmission systems installed by Tecnoaviación Deportiva to make the information available on the ground and in real time.
