Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) has a requirement for Weather Observation Services at Aeroport La Grande IV Weather Station, Quebec as detailed in the Statement of Work, Annex A to the bid solicitation. The period of the contract is from contract award to October 31, 2024 with renewal option periods of three (3) one-year periods.
ECCC operates aerological observing stations throughout Canada. These stations complete soundings of the upper atmosphere twice daily for each day of the year. The observations are taken by releasing a gas-filled balloon with an attached instrument which is tracked via one of a variety of electronic navigational methods. This attached instrument transmits meteorological data relating to temperature, humidity, and the height of standard atmospheric pressure levels. In addition, tracking of the balloon allows for computation of winds and wind shear at upper levels of the atmosphere.
Data is collected and processed automatically by sounding equipment and transmitted to the Canadian Meteorological Centre for inclusion in atmospheric models which are used to produce a number of weather forecasts. In addition, the data is shared internationally for use in many global weather monitoring and forecasting programs.
