Project Overview
It is proposed to identify convective storms using Thunderstorm Identification, Tracking, and Analysis and Nowcasting (TITAN) algorithm and represent in terms of duration, area, volume, propagation speed and direction; echo top height, etc.. In addition to the above, as mentioned in the objectives, using multiple radars, the mosaic of radar reflectivity over the Indian region will be brought out
