ABSTRACT:
A beam position processor (15) generates address signals representing the spatial coordinates of points on a simulated radar beam, for a plurality of beam directions. The address signals serve for readout of weather information (e.g. cloud intensity, ceiling and base height data) from a data storage means (16) for further processing to form a video signal for display. The storage means (16) is arranged for economy of memory capacity in that the higher order parts of the address are used to read out code words from a database memory (17). Each code word selects one of a set of predetermined cloud patterns in cloud pattern memories (18, 19) and the lower order parts of the address access data corresponding to individual cells of the selected pattern.
