Range Time Indicator (RTI)

Figure 1. RTI example

The Range Time Indicator (RTI) product displays raw scan data with time on the horizontal axis and range on the vertical axis. It can be used, for example, to show the Turbulence product and the RTI side by side in the tiled map view for comparison. RTI supports PPI scans and pointing scans.

An RTI chart may have a different minimun bin size resolution than a map product displayed next to it in a Tiles view. Map products show bin sizes no smaller than 250 m, while the RTI product will show what the sensor is configured to detect.

The 250 m minimun bin size resolution for map products may be more noticeable with smaller-range sensors like radars.
