    • Next Generation Weather Radar (NEXRAD) Setback (4-km)

    Metadata Updated: October 1, 2024

    The Next Generation Weather Radar (NEXRAD) system is a network of doppler radar operated jointly by the National Weather Service (NWS), the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), and the U.S. Air Force. This dataset represents 4-kilometer setback requirements typically applied to wind energy development. A setback requirement is a minimum distance away that an energy project may be developed.
