SuperDARN Data Plotting Tools

Here we provide the ability to plot radar data in various ways. You can plot

• the contours of the electric potential in the polar ionosphere, as derived from all available radar data, like so

• radar data of one beam as a range-time plot, i.e. plot a radar parameter, like Doppler velocity, versus distance from the radar and time. The value of the parameter is color-coded, like so

• scans of radar data; one scan is a sequence of all beam directions. The value of the selected radar parameter is then color-coded and overlaid on a map, like so

• fast fourier transforms, or FFTs, of radar data, like so
