Please don't question my integrity. Question my votes by all means, but do try to be polite. Doppler on Wheels is a truck-based system. The article is about the mobile system. The picture I refer to illustrates the truck-based system well. The size is of image is irrelevant, that image is not up for
65:(USA) captured during the VORTEX2 project. In the velocity image on the left, Blues/green represent winds moving towards the radar, and reds/yellows indicate winds moving away from the radar. The reason that some of the darker blues contain red/yellow within them is a trait known as

I'd argue the article is as much about the project's findings and research as its infrastructure and logistics. It certainly should be, even if not now. –
