Aviation meteorological services booklet

This handy booklet combines aviation reference material from the Bureau of Meteorology (BOM) in one place.

It contains the BOM reference cards on:

• Graphical Area Forecast (GAF)
• Aerodrome Forecast (TAF) and Meteorological Aerodrome Report (METAR)/Special Meteorological Report (SPECI)
• AIRMET
• SIGMET

You can also download the reference cards direct from the BOM’s Knowledge Centre.

Please note: From 30 November 2023, forecasts of weather in TAF will be for the area at the aerodrome within a radius of 8 km of the aerodrome reference point. For more information check the Aviation State Engagement Forum.
