You can view a map of the cataloged radars.
The data is in GeoJSON format, which is a standard format for geographic data that is easy to parse and process.
The latitude, longitude and sometimes elevation (in feet) of each station are given.
Each station may have the following properties:

The best way to add a new station, add additional information to an existing station, or correct mistakes in a station's record is to send a pull request for the change. Make sure to specify your source for the new info.
Otherwise, open an issue explaining the change.
