The Runway Visual Range (RVR) System consists of a group of sensors with associated software/firmwave, displays, and data distribution links. The data provided by this array of sensors provides runway visual range at various points of a precision approach runway. These RVR products are automatically processed and distributed to air traffic controllers. The data is then presented to the pilot by the controller in a numerical format equating to the number of feet forward along the runway that a pilot may be expected to see.
