Abstract
Precise knowledge on shapes of raindrops is required when predicting electromagnetic propagation parameters - in forward as well as in backscatter direction. The 2D-Video-Distrometer (2DVD) provides front and side view of each individual drop, obtained in continuous field measurements. Based on such data, in this study the reconstruction of the drops' 3D contour is presented, which is needed when calculating scattering amplitudes for actually measured raindrops.
