View radar images with rainfall in US and Canada, open your own graphic files, as well as control display settings using this application

GetNexrad is a Windows utility that facilitates a user-friendly interface for analyzing the weather radar for US and Canada. It comes bundled with multiple radar images, giving you the possibility to open your own graphic files as well as control display settings.

View weather data in US and Canada


Following a speedy setup operation that shouldn't give you any trouble, you're welcomed by a simple window with a plain appearance, where you can use the built-in file navigator to select one of the radar images provided by the developer.
Otherwise, you can open your own pictures if they contain radar information, as long as they have the GIF, PNG or JPG format. As far as image options are concerned, you can toggle overlays, range and topographic view, check out the latitude and longitude of the set point, or jump to a different position by indicating the coordinates.

Control display settings for radar information


It's also possible to enable stepping as well as to view a graph with metereology information (dBZ and rain rate). Radar loop rainfall information or Nowcast information can be saved to file. Alternatively, you can save the radar image, GetNexrad window image on or full window on update.
The file can also be uploaded to a website via FTP, with or without credentials. Meanwhile, point files for pixels within a Nexrad boundary file can be created by converting Ridge2 or R2 N0Q, or without conversion.

Easy-to-use tool for analyzing radar images


The software application worked smoothly on Windows 10 in our evaluation. Images were rendered quickly while the tool remained light on system resources consumption.
All aspects considered, GetNexrad offers a simple solution for those interested in analyzing weather information on radar images for US and Canada. It contains multiple radar images and enables you to open custom pictures as well as to take over some display preferences.
