Abstract
Although radar first emerged as a tool for studying the atmosphere, it soon became clear that weather radar had a useful operational role to play in detecting and tracking storm systems. Today this operational aspect is becoming more important with economic solutions to problems of radar data processing and distribution, and with the realisation that radar can be used to measure rainfall amounts, acting in effect as a distributed rainguage system with substantial coverage
