ADDS - Aviation Digital Data Service
Effective
Thursday, June 30, 2016 at 1500 Coordinated
Universal Time (UTC), 11:00 a.m. Eastern Daylight Time, the legacy
Aviation Weather Center webpages listed at
http://www.aviationweather.gov/info/legacy, and Java applet-based webpages
at https://www.aviationweather.gov/adds will no longer be publicly
accessible.
If a user attempts to access these webpages after this
date/time, automatic redirects will occur. This change is required since
the Java applet will no longer properly function with Java Release 9. As
the Java applet has evolved, its Application Programming Interface (API)
has also changed, to the point where it can no longer be reliably used
since it significantly degrades Web browser performance and must be
deprecated.
If users still desire to use Java-based functionality, please visit the
Flight Path Tool application:
https://www.aviationweather.gov/flightpath
Otherwise, users can access a variety of OpenLayers GIS applications
readily available at: http://www.aviationweather.gov
For more information, please view the complete Service Change Notice (SCN) at:

The Aviation Digital Data Service
(ADDS) makes available to the aviation community text,

aviation-related weather variables. ADDS is a joint effort of NCAR
Research Applications Program (RAP),
Global Systems Division (GSD)
of NOAA's Earth System Research Laboratory (ESRL), and the National Centers
for Environmental Prediction (NCEP)
Aviation Weather Center (AWC).
