This study evaluates the detection and utilization of wind shear using data from the Low-Level Wind Shear Alert System (LLWAS) and the Aerodrome Meteorological Observation System (AMOS) for the year 2023 at Incheon International Airport. A comparison of wind shear occurrence days revealed that LLWAS recorded 57 days, the reproduced LLWAS recorded 84 days, and AMOS recorded 163 days, with AMOS and the reproduced LLWAS showing higher occurrences. Performance metrics, including Probability of Detection (POD), False Alarm Ratio (FAR), Critical Success Index (CSI), and True Skill Statistic (TSS), were analyzed to evaluate detection capabilities. For the reproduced LLWAS, most wind shear events were detected, but the FAR was high, indicating lower performance. AMOS detected about 50% of actual wind shear events, with a lower FAR than the reproduced LLWAS but still relatively high. To improve detection performance, optimal thresholds for wind shear warnings were analyzed and adjusted, resulting in an increase in the CSI from 0.53 to 0.68 for the reproduced LLWAS and from 0.25 to 0.28 for AMOS. By adjusting the wind shear warning thresholds, the balance between POD and FAR was improved, confirming the potential for ground-based equipment to issue wind shear warnings effectively.
