What are some of the limitations of a radar maps?
they are not always correct
What are the limitations of radar maps?
ground clutter and evaporation are the limitations of radar maps
What are the advantages using 3D Radar over 2D Radar?
The three Dimensional maps created a revolution in the field of navigation and medical and also in the engineering field. The advantage of 3D maps are that it can give the idea of all the dimensions and hence better designs can be created by looking at the 3d maps and the conventional maps were not that much informative compared to 3D maps are
What are the limitations of Maps?
ground clutter and evaporation are the limitations of radar maps
Three types of weather maps?
thematic map
Why do radar maps only show the weather?
There are several types of radar maps including those for search and rescue or air traffic control. Weather radar maps are comprised of a frequency selected to maximize precipitation (rain/snow) reflectivity while minimizing adverse effects. While not normally noticeable on a city-scale weather radar plot, many artifacts can be present including birds and insects; chaff dropped by military aircraft; Solid obstacles such as mountains, buildings, and aircraft.
What improved the accuracy of maps after World War 2?
Sonar, RADAR and satellites and space travel improved the accuracy of maps after World War 2.
What tools did the people use to find out that there is going to be a hurricane?
Wind speed, humidity, barometric pressure, satellite maps, radar maps, predictive weather models.
On weather maps created with radar dataareas with higher usually have greater rainfall?
A. no B. no C. no Cucumbers
Why are weather maps important and what resources are used to forecast the weather?
they use a special radar to put out and its important and also the maps are helpful to know if something bad will happen
How have we been able to construct detailed maps of surface features on Venus?
Radar has been used to map the surface of Venus
Are weather maps and weather radar the same?
No. A weather map is an illustration that represents different components of the weather. Common elements of a weather map include wind speed and direction at various points, isobars (lines of equal barometric pressure), fronts, and high and low pressure systems. Some weather maps outline areas where there may be rain, snow, or potentially dangerous weather. Weather maps are used in showing how the weather is expected to behave over the course of a few hours or days. Weather radar is a technology that involves scanning the atmosphere with a beam of microwaves. The radar beam bounces off things such as rain and snow in the air. The signal that bounces back to the radar can be used to tell things such as where it is raining, how much, and sometimes how fast the wind in a storm is blowing. Doppler radar is used in tracking weather on a timescale of minutes.
