From Ruisdael Observatory Data Catalog
Dataset: TU Delft RPG-FMCW-94-DP Cloud radar (MARA)
title TU Delft RPG-FMCW-94-DP (MARA)
description The cloud radar MARA (Mobile Atmospheric RAdar) is a 94 GHz scanning polarimetric FMCW (Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave) radar, which profiles clouds and precipitation in the troposphere. By default, the radar is placed at KNMI's Remote Sensing Site in Cabauw, when it does not participate to a campaign. Its specifications can be changed to address different measurement objectives. The maximum range is 12 km and the time, range and Doppler resolution are a few seconds, about 30 m and a few cm/s, respectively.
