The Turbulent Air Motion Measurement System (TAMMS) is an in situ airborne sensor used to gather aircraft navigation information. TAMMS consists of several subsystems, including pressure transducers and temperature sensors, an aircraft inertial navigation system, a central data acquisition system, and water vapor and other gas sensors. It provides measurements of aircraft position, flight level winds, temperature, pressure, and water vapor. TAMMS has a typical sampling frequency of less than 1 second and a spatial resolution of 5 meters.
