Sophisticated yet streamlined for viewers, our weather radar, data and displays deliver accurate, compelling weather content unique in the industry. A pioneer in dual-polarization radar technology, Baron, in partnership with L-3 Communications, was selected to upgrade all 171 NEXRAD sites for the National Weather Service, Federal Aviation Administration and Department of Defense to polarimetric capability over the next five years. To date, the company has installed every broadcast dual-polarization radar in the world. Following the recent introduction of the Baron Tornado Index (BTI™), which ranks the likelihood of tornadic development, Baron customers reported dramatic ratings gains. Additionally, the upcoming Omni™ platform will deliver advanced global-to-local HD weather analysis, combining 3D terrain, photorealistic mapping, and revolutionary, high-definition data products for a new level of weather and news presentation.
