X-Band Polarimetric in Disaster Risk Management: The X-Band Polarimetric (XBP), which employs the dual polarisation approach, is thought to be an essential technology in disaster risk management for preventing or mitigating water-related calamities as weather radar technology develops. XBand radar has a compact physical size and can be made to be mobile. It is appropriate for rainfall monitoring with both temporal and spatial resolution due to its shorter wavelength (3–4 cm). In addition, it can deliver rainfall dispersion details in addition to nearly real-time data (with intervals of one to two minutes). (Diss et al., 2009; Fajriani, Jayadi, Legono, & Sujono, 2021; FURUNO, 2016; NIED, 2005). Rainfall data play a key role in providing disaster information to help the Disaster Risk Management communities to prepare and prevent disasters, mostly water related disaster (Chandrasekar, Chen, & Maki, 2012; Hasan, Goto, & Miyamoto, 2019).
