In order to provide work on the active impact on clouds with meteorological radar information (information about the fields of cloudiness, precipitation and related hazardous weather phenomena) in areas where it is not possible to obtain regular meteorological radar information, a mobile radar system for managing work on RDI (MRS RTI) was created ) based on the small-sized meteorological radar (MMRL) «Kontur-Meteo-01», developed in 2010 according to the terms of reference of the ANO «ATTEH Agency». The organization scheme of the MRS IRO «Kontur-Meteo-01» is shown in fig. one.

Rice. 1. Scheme of organization of MRS IRO «Kontur-Meteo-01»

  The composition of the MRS IRO «Kontur — Meteo — 01» includes:

• MMRL «Kontur-Meteo-01» (Fig. 3) with a system of digital processing and registration of information.
• block for receiving and transmitting data between the operational work control center, radar and impact aircraft.
• software and hardware complex of workplaces for operators of the operational work control center.
• impact aircraft with ground-to-air-to-ground onboard complexes for receiving and transmitting data.
• voice radio channel.

  The software and hardware complex of workstations for operators of the RC for the management of RES works allows the following operations to be carried out:

• exchange information between operators’ workstations by using the TCP/IP protocol;
• receive information from the Internet;
• carry out processing and analysis of radar information coming from the mobile radar «Kontur — Meteo — 01».

  The block diagram of the software and hardware complex MRS IRO «Kontur — Meteo — 01» is shown in fig. 2.
