A radar tracker is a component of a radar system, or an associated command and control (C2) system, that associates consecutive radar observations of the same target into tracks. It is particularly useful when the radar system is reporting data from several different targets or when it is necessary to combine the data from several different ...
A meso-beta scale vortex Mesoscale meteorology is the study of weather systems and processes at horizontal scales of approximately 5 kilometres (3 mi) to several hundred kilometres. It is smaller than synoptic-scale systems (1,000 km or larger) but larger than microscale (less than 1 km).
MyRadar is a free weather forecasting application developed by Andy Green and his Orlando, Florida-based company ACME AtronOmatic (ACME). The app began operations in 2008 and ran on government-provided weather and radar data for its first decade. In 2019, ACME launched personal satellites to improve predictions of ongoing weather.
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 ...
By and large, meteorological monitoring is done operationally by relatively legacy weather radar systems – in the United States, the NEXRAD network has been the primary weather radar network since the early 1990s. For the first 20 years of operations, its data output was, in comparison to modern schemes, considerably more modest.
Yr.no generates weather forecasts for millions of places around the world. Its 3-day forecast uses two different weather models with a 2.5 km resolution in Scandinavia and the Norwegian islands, and for other places, the ECMWF's IFS model in high-resolution configuration (HRES), with a 9 km resolution.
