In the future, VEIA will be a core component of VWOS.

Camera images are available on the FAA’s Aviation Weather Camera website, which can be found in Appendix G. Images are generally updated every 10 minutes. The time of the last update is indicated on each image. Actual site conditions may differ from displayed images due to a variety of reasons (e.g., rapidly changing weather conditions, image update frequency, or optical distortion).

Camera images are to be used to improve situational awareness. They are not to be used to determine weather minimums for VFR or IFR flight, unless authorized by the Administrator of the FAA.

In addition to the camera images, the website also delivers a variety of safety of flight information, including adverse conditions (e.g., AIRMETs and SIGMETs), current conditions [e.g., METARs, radar, satellite imagery, and weather trends (see Figure 24-34)], TAFs, PIREPs, and other aeronautical information (e.g., RCOs, TFRs, and charts).
