DESCRIPTION: Like Base
Reflectivity, Base Velocity is a base product measured
by the radar. Base Velocity is the average radial velocity
of the targets in the radar beam at a given location. Radial
velocity is the component of the target's motion that is
along the direction of the radar beam. Positive values (warm colors) denote out-bound velocities that are
directed away from the radar. Negative
values (cool colors) are
in-bound velocities that are
directed towards the radar.
