Abstract In the framework of the development of a concept for radar data use in hydrological services, a survey has been performed. The objective of this survey was to find out the practical requirements on radar data from the users’ perspective. Besides a better technical definition of the concept, the responses showed needs in education and training of radar derived information use in hydrology. This survey was extended to non‐hydrological use of radar data during a two year project where online radar data were provided for practical applications in hydrology, agriculture and traffic control. The results showed that there is a discrepancy between the actually produced and provided radar data, and their use and usefulness for practical applications. Additional work requirements include radar data quality control and data correction, application oriented radar data processing, early communication between radar data provider and the users on requirements (e.g. compulsory periods of data availability), and training on the differences between observations at traditional rainfall stations and radar observations.
