Explanation

RVR stands for Runway Visual Range, which is a critical aviation meteorological parameter that measures the distance a pilot can see down the runway from the approach end. This information is essential for determining whether aircraft can land safely during low visibility conditions such as fog, heavy rain, or snow. RVR is typically reported in meters or feet and is continuously monitored at major airports.
