2. Weather radar - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weather_radar

   Weather radar, also called weather surveillance radar ( WSR) and Doppler weather radar, is a type of radar used to locate precipitation, calculate its motion, and estimate its type (rain, snow, hail etc.). Modern weather radars are mostly pulse-Doppler radars, capable of detecting the motion of rain droplets in addition to the intensity of the ...

3. NEXRAD - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NEXRAD

   NEXRAD or Nexrad (Next-Generation Radar) is a network of 159 high-resolution S-band Doppler weather radars operated by the National Weather Service (NWS), an agency of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) within the United States Department of Commerce, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) within the Department of Transportation, and the U.S. Air Force within the ...

4. Doppler radar - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doppler_radar

   A Doppler radar is a specialized radar that uses the Doppler effect to produce velocity data about objects at a distance. [ 1] It does this by bouncing a microwave signal off a desired target and analyzing how the object's motion has altered the frequency of the returned signal.

5. Pulse-Doppler radar - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulse-Doppler_radar

   A pulse-Doppler radar is a radar system that determines the range to a target using pulse-timing techniques, and uses the Doppler effect of the returned signal to determine the target object's velocity. It combines the features of pulse radars and continuous-wave radars, which were formerly separate due to the complexity of the electronics .

6. National Severe Storms Laboratory - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Severe_Storms...

   NSSL: On-Demand is a web-based tool based on WDSS-II that helps confirm when and where severe weather occurred by mapping radar-detected circulations or hail on Google Earth satellite images. National Weather Service (NWS) forecast offices, including those affected by the 2011 Super Outbreak, use the images to plan post event damage surveys ...

7. Weather satellite - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weather_satellite

   GOES-16, a United States weather satellite of the meteorological-satellite service. A weather satellite or meteorological satellite is a type of Earth observation satellite that is primarily used to monitor the weather and climate of the Earth. Satellites can be polar orbiting (covering the entire Earth asynchronously), or geostationary ...
