          @Rs-Parjapati Hello, our primary source for Indian radar images is from India Meteorological Department (IMD) and we also use images from Rainviewer because data from IMD don't contain all radars and have quite frequent outages as well.

          If you know any other sources that can be used, please share them with us.

              @Rs-Parjapati Do you have any information about any source of data in India that could help us provide better data?

                  @Rs-Parjapati We discussed this with colleagues and it seems they use a different visualization or source of data. We cannot do much with this.

                        Hi @Rs-Parjapati, we are getting data from some of the radar sites directly from IMD (India Meteorology Department)

                            For which area do You find data inaccurate? Also as far as I know, there is no alternative to data from IMD. To my knowledge, nobody else is running weather radars in India.

                                This is not an issue..windy use data that is available. They visualizes data..they don't produce them...

                                    I see, Nagaur disctrict is quite close to the edge of current radar coverage:
                                    a339ba05-087d-48fb-86c2-efe0e2c6d521-image.png

                                    So my guess there is no radar site that is nearby and thus distant radars "see" only clouds and precipitation that is higher and further away from ground.
                                    You can check all available IMD radars on their web.
                                    I'm afraid there isn't much we can do about it.

                                          Where? Are radars in India able to detect hail ? I know they do that in USA.
