Meteorological software gets weather information through meteorological radars, weather radars, sensors, flying aircraft, and helicopters. Radars provide information such as temperature, wind speed, humidity, wind direction, climatic, and other environmental conditions. The collected information is then processed in the software. It is used to prepare reports such as Meteorological Aerodrome Reports (METARs), Terminal Aerodrome Forecasts (TAFs), and Wind aloft that are used in the aviation industry.


Helicopter Industry is Facing Unmatched Challenges due to COVID-19 Pandemic


Since the COVID-19 virus outbreak in December 2019, the disease has spread to almost 100 countries around the globe with the World Health Organization (WHO) declaring it a pandemic. The global impacts of the COVID-19 have already started to be felt, and will significantly impact the meteorological software market in the year 2020 and 2021. Moreover, the IT industry has been impacted by COVID-19. The reduction in demand has changed the dynamic of this industry. It is also causing disruptions in the supply chain.


India Meteorological Department (IMD) claimed that there was a 60% decline in the meteorological data that depends on aircraft due to flight suspensions. In India, nearly eight lakh pieces of data sent daily to the World Meteorological Organization’s Aircraft Meteorological Data Relay Programme from 43 airlines have dropped by 80% since march-end. According to the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO), a United Nations Agency, the coronavirus outbreak is expected to cause USD 1.29 billion in revenue loss for Japanese tourism just in the first quarter of 2020.

Adoption of eVTOL Technology is a Prominent Trend


In recent years, the helicopter domain in the aviation sector is showcasing a strong growth due to the demand from numerous applications such as emergency medical services, search and rescue, oil & gas, and others. The rising research and development activities by companies in the eVTOL concept are likely to exhibit significant growth in the next few years. Due to the use of electric propulsion, this new technology emerged as reliable, user-friendly, faster, and efficient in terms of the overall operation.


Meteorological software providers across the globe should look forward to developing software products and services for such air vehicles to dominate the market presence. The development of compatible software for helideck monitoring systems that provide atmospheric information such as temperature, wind speed and direction, and cloud data would propel the growth of the market.


DRIVING FACTORS


Rising Demand for Helicopter Emergency Medical Services (HEMS) to Propel Market Growth


Growing investments in the healthcare sector and the rising investment by private hospitals in infrastructure development in countries such as the U.S., Australia, France, and others are creating a high demand for helicopter emergency medical services (HEMS). Hospitals in the urban areas prefer air ambulance services over roadway transportation attributed to their benefits, such as fast and safe transportation of patients to the hospitals. Moreover, the rising human organ transportation through air ambulance is driving the growth of the market.


Helicopter pilots require real-time weather information to operate helicopters in harsh environments for avoiding accidents. Thus, the demand for helicopters is continuously increasing for numerous applications that, in turn, is creating a need for weather monitoring software. The meteorological software installed in helicopters and heliports provides real-time information to air traffic controllers and pilots for efficient helicopter operations. Passenger safety is an important aspect in the aviation sector; aircraft operators always ensure the safety of their passengers and comfort all the time, helicopter meteorological software provides safety to all flights. Thereby, raising concern over passenger safety is supporting the market growth.


Development of Real-time Data Tracking Software for Weather Monitoring and Forecasting will Favor Growth


An increasing demand for helicopters for a variety of applications such as search & rescue, oil and gas, emergency medical services, transportation, and others would drive the growth of the market. Helicopter operations require real-time atmospheric data such as temperature, wind speed, and weather forecasting information to avoid accidents. The rising accidents and safety norms described by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is also a major reason for the implementation of real-time data management software. Real-time data tracking assists the pilot to take the required decisions during the flight. Moreover, the information related to the helicopter system and software is provided by the flight management software installed in the helicopter.


RESTRAINING FACTORS


Stringent Government Rules and Regulations to Restrict Market Growth


According to the United States Helicopter Safety Team (USHST), helicopter fatal accident rate was continuously increased from 2016 to 2018. In these years, in North America and Europe, there were major helicopter accidents reported. Thus, to minimize the risk of accidents and fatalities, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has laid down rules and regulations for the service providers. The company certification process is carried out by considering the described regulatory norms. Due to these stringent rules, software providers need to modify their software features based on a helicopter and the region where it operated.
