His report is below: NexGen Weather Processor/Aviation Weather Display (AWD) - The latest version of the AWD was installed at the William J. Hughes Technical Center in early July. Work continues to develop an Early User Evaluation (EUE) planned for late September/October. The EUE will be hosted to allow Traffic Management Coordinators (TMCs) from different facilities that will receive the AWD to provide feedback with the current product. The goal of the EUE is to ensure that we are developing the product to consider the terminal, command center, and En Route TMC requirements and allow time to make the necessary changes. Build 7.4 of the AWD has been completed and build 7.5 has started. The primary work on build 5 will be devoted to National Weather Service (NWS) products. A number of these products will be new products that are not currently available on the Weather and Radar Processor (WARP).
