Radar coverage analysisKnow what your radar will see.
Ground and 3D air coverage for surveillance radar, computed over real terrain. Plan the mast, find the blind spots and check the layout before anyone visits the site.
10 simulations per month free. No card, no subscription. Packs from £50 when you need more.

The workspace
Real runs over real terrain.
Every image here is a screenshot of Axiorad, taken from runs on the live platform. No renders, no mock-ups.

Coastal surveillance
Detection probability over the sea from a 25 m cliff-top site. The configuration column holds the radar's position, mast height and analysis radius.

Airborne targets
Drones fly. Coverage should too.
3D air coverage
Compute detection over the terrain at the altitude the target flies, then read it as a slice, a lowest detectable altitude map or a range–altitude section.
- Air models
- Ground ITM or ITU-R P.528
- Views
- Ground, altitude slice, lowest altitude
- Targets
- Small to large drones, birds, aircraft
Surface targets
Every ridge accounted for.
Terrain-aware detection
Each cell gets a path profile from the radar over real elevation, so masking by ridges, dunes and valley walls shows up as gaps in the map rather than as surprises on site.

Method
Published models. No black box.
The models are published standards, documented in the methodology, so an engineer can check the working rather than trust a colour on a map.
Propagation
Longley-Rice ITM and ITU-R P.1812-6 over the terrain profile, ITU-R P.526 diffraction, and ITU-R P.528 for air paths.
Environment
Rain attenuation to ITU-R P.838 and P.839, atmospheric gases to ITU-R P.676, and foliage loss.
Detection
Albersheim and Shnidman detection probability for Swerling 0–4 targets, at the false-alarm rate you set.
Planning estimates, not guarantees. Compare one result with your radar's datasheet range before relying on a layout.

Pay for simulations, not subscriptions.
Every account gets 10 simulations per month. When you run out, buy a simulation pack with a one-time payment. No subscription, no renewal, and paid simulations never expire. One simulation is one radar coverage calculation.

A free simulation can be upgraded later with one paid simulation to unlock its exports. Invite a colleague from your billing settings: when they run their first simulation, you both get 5 paid simulations. Prices are in GBP. Organisations needing invoicing, volume or on-premise terms can contact us.
