ABSTRACT:
A weather display apparatus and method wherein the relative positions of weather information and reference marks are accurately displayed. Information obtained from typical airborne weather radars is distorted due to the use of imperfect beams, such as a conical beam. The distorted weather information is displayed to a pilot. At least one reference mark is also displayed on the display in positions in accordance with relative positions in the airspace and with a distortion factor.
