The following pictures show AWIPS hardware and examples of data available on AWIPS. Much more data are available than shown below and can be integrated in many ways according to forecaster preference. Forecasters use the workstations for display, analysis, and manipulation of many data sets in order to prepare a multitude of forecast and warning products. Each workstation consists of 1 alphanumeric and 2 graphics monitors. Five workstations exist at NWS Louisville to support full office functions.
