FAQ
 
What is IP5?
Integrative Project Five (IP5) is an end-to-end test bed of the National Science Foundation's Center for Collaborative Adaptive Sensing of the Atmosphere (CASA).  IP5 is designed to connect end-users (NWS, emergency managers) to a network of weather radars in the field to enable targeted sampling of the low-level (0 - 3 km) atmosphere.  IP5 is comprised of four X-band (3 cm) radars, each with a beamwidth of 1.8 degrees and a range of 40 km. 

KRSP, KLWE, KSAO, KCYR Operational!
The four radars of IP5, located at Chickasha (KSAO), Cyril (KCYR), Lawton (KLWE), and Rush Springs (KRSP) are operational with each radar collecting data in real-time. Signal processing includes single radar attenuation correction and clutter filtering.  The system is operated in DCAS (Distributed Collaborative Adaptives Sensing) mode, with radar scanning dynamically adjusted in real-time.  Detection algorithms identify significant radar features, and this feature information is then passed to an optimization process that defines a scanning strategy based on competing end-user needs.
