Geographical Weather Correlation

Taking weather radar to the next level

Through our years of global operational experience, Rockwell Collins has learned that weather threats vary dramatically depending on the different geographic regions in which they are formed. For instance, equatorial oceanic weather is, on average, two-hundred times less reflective than storms of corresponding height that form over continental land masses, and land mass thunderstorm characteristics vary on their proximity to the equator.

MultiScan's patented automatic Geographic Weather Correlation capability provides optimum weather detection across different geographic regions, as opposed to other radars that provide a single solution to a multi-variable problem.
