The basic idea behind radar is very simple: a signal is transmitted, it bounces off an object and it is later received by some type of receiver. This is like the type of thing that happens when sound echo's off a wall. However radars don't use sound as a signal. Instead they use certain kinds of electromagnetic waves called radio waves and microwaves. This is where the name RADAR comes from (Radio Detection And Ranging). Sound is used as a signal to detect objects in devices called SONAR (Sound Navigation Ranging).

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
