China's New Generation Of Weather Radar, Map Design And Single-doppler Radar Horizontal Wind Field Inversion Technique,

In the first chapter of this article, the application of Doppler radar in the world is summarized. Doppler radar is the effective tool in disaster surveillance and weather forecast for its high space-time identification and powerful initiative remote sensing in real-time. China is building a Doppler radar net-work on a national scale.In the second chapter, based on the geographical Digital Line Graphic (DLG) provided by National Mapping Bureau and the data format transformed by map projection which is needed by China new weather radar(CINRAD), the Map-editor (version 1.0) is studied and designed, in addition, the function of the map-editor is introduced in this chapter.In the third chapter, we studied two methods of retrieving two-dimensional wind fields from single-Doppler radar data, they are VAP method and VPP method. Two experiments are conducted using simulated single-Doppler radar data and a real radar data are retrieved to prove the two methods, and the results are analyzed and compared.
