get_pvol() can read polar volume data from a number of sources. See the map for details.
To get an overview of weather radar metadata, use get_weather_radars().
get_vpts() can read vertical profile data from the following sources. These sources correspond to different processing pipelines. They can, for example, use polar volumes that have been processed and filtered in different ways, for more details see Shamoun-Baranes et al. (2020). Multiple sources can thus contain data from from the same radar and time periods. For an overview of the coverage available use get_vpts_coverage() or explore the article on the getRad webpage.
These data are stored on the Aloft bucket. The baltrad source covers most radars and longest time series, however data quality is more variable as polar volumes are sometimes filtered for biological signals before processing to vertical profiles. uva and ecog-04003 are more curated datasets. See details.
These data are provided by the Royal Meteorological Institute of Belgium (RMI). This dataset is restricted to Belgium and some radars in the surrounding countries. See details.
