It has been widely used in some developed countries. The construction of China’s NEXTRAD network has started since 1998, and this project is supported by national debt. In this paper the author addresses the development of NEXTRAD techniques, the pre\|sent situation of construction and application of NEXTRAD in China, some problems to be carefully considered in construction, and seve\|ral new fields of future radar technique developments and applications in weather monitoring.展开更多
