Title

DOppler RAdar Data Exchange Format DORADE

Abstract

The purpose of this article is to document the DORADE format version 1, which will be used to exchange data collected by the ELDORA/ASTRAIA airborne Doppler radar and the NCAR ground-based radars. The physical description and definitions of the DORADE format are in Section 2. Section 3 describes the data structure. Appendix A provides the schematics of the terminologies used in Section 3. For the purposes of this document, only detailed formats for radar data recording are discussed. Exchanged data should always be corrected as best as the facility making the tape can do, i.e., aircraft motion removed, range delay corrected, etc.
