Vaisala Marwin MW32 Online Training

The Vaisala MARWIN® Sounding System MW32 provides an atmospheric profile of wind, pressure, temperature and humidity from the surface up to the altitudes to be used in the ballistic weather computation. In addition, the data can be used as input into numerical weather models to provide updated observation for more precise predictions. Further, the atmospheric profile is useful for e.g. for aviation, CBRN and naval applications. Data is provided in relevant STANAG and WMO formats.

This course will provide the students with an excellent understanding of the Marwin MW32 sounding system and go into detail on how to set-up, configure, operate and pack the system. Finally, the course includes the most common field-repair tasks.

Training overview
