A giant leap forward for weather radar and news rating

It is simply the most important, demonstrable, life-saving advance for weather radar and severe weather reporting in a generation. WSI + EEC’s Defender dual polarity radar allows you to detect, analyze, depict and warn viewers of more kinds of dangerous weather than any radar system in history…And any other radar system on the market today.

Your audience will see a clear, dramatic and confidence-inspiring advantage over traditional Doppler radar images in your very first show with Defender. That's because single polarity Doppler radar tells only a fraction of the weather story.

The twin radar beams of Defender examine the atmosphere along horizontal and vertical axis at the same time, providing more than twice the data input. Then WSI + EEC's patented new high-resolution processing technology turns this data into clear, visually compelling images of weather phenomenon -- even weather that remains invisible to traditional radar.

Now you will show your audience tornadoes as they touch the ground, and follow them, even at night, when eyewitness confirmation is virtually impossible. Rain, sleet, snow and hail will be televised more clearly and accurately with Defender. Traditional radar cannot distinguish the difference between these precipitation types. With Defender, you will now detect, depict and warn viewers of the leading cause of weather-related death in the U.S. -- flooding rain. Compared to dual polarity radar, traditional radar is virtually blind to this deadly phenomenon.

You can unleash the full scope of Defender's power with WSI's TruVu Titan. Titan is the one interactive storytelling tool designed to be robust enough to turn Defender's higher quality data into the highest resolution images and maximize the quality of your forecasts.

That's credible, compelling television. That's the strength of Defender.
