Aviation Report Decoder
=======================

[](#aviation-report-decoder)

A PHP library to decode aviation report strings

Introduction
------------

[](#introduction)

This piece of software is a library package that provides a parser to decode raw aviation reports.

Currently Supported:

- Taf

Requirements
------------

[](#requirements)

This library package requires PHP >= 5.3

Composer [composer](http://getcomposer.org)

Setup
-----

[](#setup)
