Summary

Description
English: Example of Constant Altitude Weather Radar output (CAPPI). Contrary to PPI which are data from and fix angle of elevation, CAPPIs use the data from all angles nearest a fixed altitude to compose an horizontal slice of the precipitations.
Français : Contrairement aux PPI (vue panoramique à un angle d'élévation) qui s'éloigne du sol avec la distance, le CAPPI (exemple) est une coupe horizontale des données radar à une altitude donnée.
