Doppler Radar maps use radio and micro waves to determine the distance of certain objects. Typically doppler radar is used for weather purposes and in the field of meteorology to map storm patterns and potential natural disasters. This has been the huge benefit of doppler radar in modern times. The image above  shows the weather patterns of Barrie, Ontario, Canada. This map qualifies as it is showing the weather patterns including the climate and includes a legend at the right side that displays precipitation.
