The X-Band Polarimetric Doppler Weather Radar (XPOL) is a ground-based, transportable polarimetric radar manufactured by ProSensing. XPOL measures reflectivity, Doppler velocity, and polarimetric radar parameters to characterize precipitation and clouds. XPOL operates at a 9.41 GHz frequency and has a typical beam width of 1.4 degrees. It has a selectable range resolution of 15-150 meters.
