Hourly measurements are taken from aircraft across the world during all stages of flight, and the report is transmitted at 6-hourly intervals at the standard hours of observation which are: 0000, 0600, 1200, and 1800 UTC. The AMDAR message contains measurements of parameters such as aircraft characteristics, wind speed and direction, degree of turbulence, and air temperature.",
