Maps, below, show existing radar locations and full volumetric coverage for all operation NEXRAD WSR-88D and TDWR sites. Beam heights were calculated using a standard atmospheric refractive index of 1.21 and the Half-Power Beamwidth. Associated terrain data were publicly available through USGS.
- A full volume of WSR-88D data includes all standard elevation angles from VCP 12 starting with 0.5 degrees going through 19.5 degrees out to 300 km in range. Locations using a Base tilt have the additional coverage included. Refer to the latest Interface Control Document for the RDA/RPG for more details on elevation angles and Base Tilts.
- A full volume of TDWR data includes all site-specific operational angles out to 230 km in range.
