The little brother of an army radar operator asks: "Bob, tell me how does radar work?"
"The radar transmitter emits brief impulses of electromagnetic waves which are reflected from the target and received by a special receiver. Since the speed at which electromagnetic waves propagate is exactly known and the time they take to travel to the target and back can be determined with a great degree of accuracy it is possible to determine the range to the target as well as the direction to it."
His brother Jim, ponders a moment, then says, "If you don't know Bob, why don't you just say so?"

The KAT500 is a completely integrated radar/laser detector which responds not only to all the radar guns in use today including Stalker but also to the other latest development in speed monitoring devicesthe laser gun. Add Rocky Mountain technologies like MicroScan and SmartScan and competitive features like Safety Warning System detection and you ve got some featurepacked peace of mind. Wide Detection. The KAT500 provides distinct visual and audible alerts to warn you of the presence of X K and all kinds of Ka Band radar guns in the front and rear of you. It also provides 360 degree laser detection with adaptive laser tracking (ALT) for better laser performance. Stay alert with a 3.4 mile radar detection range for radar and 2.5 miles for laser. VG2 Immunity. VG2 are devices police use to detect radar detectors. This model provides the benefit of undetectability by alerting you to the presence of VG2 signals. Advanced MicroScan. Scans the radar bands 24 times faster than as any other detector. This allows Rocky Mountain devices to pick up the new P.O.P. radar that no one else can. SmartScan. When Rocky Mountain devices detect radar in one scan they repeat that scan instead of completing programmed scans and returning. This means they detect quicker with less false alarms than any other detector. Safety Alert and Safety Warning System. The The KAT500 unit incorporates the Safety Alerts (SA) and Safety Warning Systems (SWS) detection. This safety feature warns you of the presence of potential road hazards by detecting signals from safety transmitting devices. City Mode. The falsealert are often caused in urban areas by automatic door openers and alarm systems. The KAT500 features a City mode in which the X band is not detected and K/Ka band sensitivity is lowered. 3.4 mile radar detection range 2.5 mile laser detection. MicroScan for POP detection. SmartScan eliminates false alarms. 360 degree detection
The weather radar is one of the best sources of information about the impending severe weather, including heavy thundershowers, hail, tornadoes, hurricanes, flooding conditions, and strong wind storms. Because of its spatial and temporal resolution as well as the extended coverage, weather radar is very suitable for such purposes. The use of weather radar is responsible for the savings of many lives each year by providing early warnings and advisories about these situations. In addition to its uses in severe weather, the ability of radar to estimate the amount of rain falling within its field of view provides hydrologists and flood forecasters with valuable information related to crops and agriculture as well as making flood forecasting more accurate. Nevertheless, rainfall rate estimate based on radar measurements is affected by an high degree of uncertainty due to several error sources. This work is aimed at evaluating new procedures for compensating such effects by also resorting to dualpolarization techniques. As a relatively novel field of application, the use of weather radar for volcanic ash monitoring and estimation is also evaluated.

Feet per Second/Millisecond a degree of longitude.?
I am trying to determine how many feet there are per a second/millisecond of longitude at a given latitude.
What I'm trying to do is create a simple radar for my gps to track distance from fire hydrants. However, I only want to go out to a 1000 feet. While I have this working for latitude, the longitude formula is proving much more difficult to put together.
Basically what I want to do is :
CurrentPosition +- (1000/Feet per Second of Longitude) I know the details behind how longitude works. But what is the formula to determine how many feet are in a second of longitude at a given latitude.
I.E.
Feet Per Second Of Longitude = ??????????
1 minute of arc at equator = 1naut.mile = 6080 feet 1 second of arc at equator = 101 1/3 feet. At latitude 'w', the above quantities have a multiplying factor cos w. (101.3333) cos w feet per second of longitude At a latitude of 60 degrees (=w) 1minute=3040' 1second=50 2/3 '
