The use of radar to infer dynamical structure from storms is currently being extended by several reseach groups by employing two or more coherent radars positioned to allow construction of the three-dimensional wind field. A simplified analysis implication for experiments using more than two Doppler radars is discussed. Optimum placement of a three-radar network, based on a design criterion which minimizes the resolvable scale determined within a specified accuracy, is also given.
