Hello folks,

I'm working on building color profiles based on color palettes used in the real world. I've found this document referencing ACD for CARTS and TCW for STARS. I'm looking for something similar for other radar systems, especially DSR and ASDE-X. If they are available for other types as well, that would also be cool. I've searched Google to no end and have had almost no luck.

If anyone can point me in the right direction, I'd greatly appreciate it.

Thanks!

I took a look, I like many of them, but one more thing I can't quite figure out.

Which of the color profiles should be used with ARTS radar mode? If I remember correctly, ACD and ARTS-IIIE have radar targets that look like STARS ones. So I'm kinda confused on what goes with what. (Obviously the STARS and DSR go with their respective radar modes, I'm not sure about all the ARTS ones though.)
