Doppler Radar


A doppler radar is a special radar that uses the features of doppler to produce velocity data about objects at a certain distance. The doppler radar observing unit can track ways that weather shifts. These help meteorologists determine the weather so that the public knows what is going on. This image is from the Environment Canada maps and shows the radial velocity of the storm.
