Since its inception, the International Radar Conference (iRAD) has grown into one of India’s most significant scientific platforms in radar meteorology and atmospheric sciences. Each edition has played a vital role in driving progress in radar instrumentation, data assimilation and the operational use of radar observations for weather and climate research.
Over the years, iRAD has fostered a vibrant and collaborative community of scientists, researchers and professionals spanning academia, research organizations, government institutions and the operational meteorological sector. The conference continues to serve as a bridge between research and real-world applications, inspiring innovation and collaboration in radar-based atmospheric studies.
