Director of International Sales

Robert (Bob) Rissland

I have served as Director, international Sales for Radiometrics for over 25  years, specializing in managing a network of in-country representatives in 100+ countries, with total sales of Radiometrics’ systems and services of  over $65,000,000 in that time.  

My passion has always been to create strong partnerships with companies in the hydrometeorogical industry who manufacture complimentary products which when integrated with our microwave profiling products, especially the MP-3000A,allow us to better service the atmospheric remote sensing needs a broad range of customers. One such effort resulted in the realization of the SkyCast Wind and Thermodynamic Profiling System (WTPS) now being widely installed at airports worldwide. A system solution unique to Radiometrics. 

Certified Consulting Meteorologist / Radar Product Manager

Tim Wilfong

In 2016, I joined the Radiometrics team where I develop and test new signal processing techniques, and oversee meteorological aspects of the installations and performance evaluations of the Radiometrics Raptor Wind Profiler line.  

From 1969 to 1989, I served with the Air Force Air Weather Service; where my assignments included providing support to tactical air operations, performing aerial reconnaissance, supporting NATO international operations, implementing global models for central forecasting support, and developing systems for and supporting space and ballistic launch operations. During my last assignment at Patrick AFB, FL, I became interested in the use of Doppler Radar wind profiling technology to support demanding operations such as space launches.  

 At the completion of 20 years of Air Force service in 1989, I was invited by NASA to oversee the evaluation of the then new 50 MHz super profiler at Kennedy Space Center (KSC). The results of that evaluation not only showed the technology was capable of supporting launch operations; but also, resulted in the implementation of superior signal processing of my design that was re-implemented with the new system deployed by NASA in 2014 at KSC that is now used to support launch operations at the Eastern Range. 

  I’ve had the opportunity to participate the design and implementation of the current decision support systems used on the Eastern and Western Space Launch Ranges, as well as the Next Generation National Profiling Network for the National Weather Service.  

 Other activities?? I love being outdoors in all kinds of weather – hiking and cycling are also my passions.
