Radar Support System (RSS)

The RSS was developed by TSC for the FAA and USAF Rome Laboratory to automate the radar siting and performance analysis function. The RSS determines:


· Optimum radar location and height
· Performance at specified site
· Sources of radar performance problems
· Impact of proposed construction on radar

The RSS also serves as a Geographic Information System (GIS) and supports control tower siting and airport planning. Please see our COMPASS page for a detailed description of the RSS and COMPASS.
