Add live radar data from commercial radar
-
I work with a radar manufacturer that has just recently put one of its customers live data on a public site for NOAA. The radar site is in the US. Do you have the ability to incorporate this data into your app? The data format is very flexible.

@korina Actually this radar is a gap filler for this area and the customer would like to see the data from this radar displayed on your app. There are actually quite a few areas in the US that have coverage gaps which has been acknowledged by NOAA. Are you able to add this data using this data format? Is this a feature that could be added to your app where users can select a particular radar by name and/or location? The radar manufacturer is willing to pay for this feature as well.

@bigern70 Hello, if we consider it as a reliable source, we may add it in the future.
