Ground-Based Radar
Ground-based radar is a technology that uses radio waves to detect and track objects on the ground and in the air. It sends out signals that bounce off objects, like planes or weather systems, and returns data to the radar system. This information helps monitor everything from weather patterns and air traffic to military activities. By analyzing the returned signals, operators can determine the location, speed, and direction of objects, making it a vital tool for aviation safety, meteorology, and security.
