AMOSs are installed near the runway complex in all airports in Korea as basic aviation meteorological observation equipment. AMOS is composed of meteorological sensors, a data processing computer and display units. Each sensor automatically measures, collects, processes, displays and transmits data.

The data are continuously processed and updated by AMOS, and are provided to MET, ATS, OPS, COM and other operator offices for the real-time display of meteorological conditions.

Wind direction and speed, RVR, temperature, dew-point temperature, atmospheric pressure, cloud height, and the amount of precipitation are automatically measured by AMOS, while sky conditions, visibility and present weather are manually observed and added to the automatic reports.
