Radio detection and ranging is more commonly known as radar. It is a technology that uses radio waves to detect objects and determine their distance, speed, and direction. Radar is used in various applications such as air traffic control, weather forecasting, and military systems.
What else can I help you with?
What tool uses microwaves to map the earth and is useful when climate conditions prevent geographers from seeing the earths surface?
Radio Detection and Ranging (RADAR)
Are radars and gps one in the same?
No, radars and GPS are not the same. Radar (Radio Detection and Ranging) uses radio waves to detect objects and determine their distance, speed, and direction, commonly used in aviation and weather monitoring. GPS (Global Positioning System) relies on signals from satellites to provide location information to users on the ground, enabling navigation and positioning. While both technologies use radio waves, their functions and applications are distinct.
Antonym for sonar?
Sonar is a method of sound based ranging. Therefore as an object it is not subject to an antonym. There is the principal of radar which can also range, but it uses radio waves instead.
Why do meteorologists use a radar?
RADAR stands for RAdio Detection And Ranging. It can detect anything that will reflect its radio pusles. It is used to monitor airspace around airports, locate and track satellites in space, monitor atmospheric water density for weather stations... Many very useful functions.
What is the longest wavelengh in the electromagnetic spectrum?
The electromagnetic waves with the longest wavelength are called "radio waves". There is no limit to how long the wavelengths can be.

What is the difference between Radio detection and ranging and Radio detection and ranging satellite?
The Difference is that Radar Satellites are just a more advanced version of Radar.
Longform of RADAR?
Acronym for RAdio Detection And Ranging.
What does the name radar mean?
Radio Detection and Ranging
Why do we use radio waves in radar why not other waves?
"Radar" comes from RAdio Detection And Ranging. If it didn't use radio it would be called something else.LIDAR (LIght Detection And Ranging) is laser instead of radio. That uses light.
What method of underwater detection is short for sound navigation and ranging?
SONAR is actually an abbreviation for SOund Navigation And Ranging. RADAR is correspondingly an abbreviation for RAdio Detection And Ranging. LIDAR is correspondingly an abbreviation for LIght Detection And Ranging.
