Based on the SRTM (shuttle radar topography mission)data, the ground clutter and other clutters around Tianshui radar station were filtered, then the Z-I function with localized parameters was established on the basis of six precipitation processes with three types in Southeast Gansu after filtering the ground clutter and other clutters of radar data, and at last the reflectivity factor of Xifeng new generation weather radar in Qingyang was compared with the one in Tianshui within the coincidence range. The results show that SRTM data can well simulate the distribution of ground clutter; radar reflectivity is ahead of precipitation; the Z-I function with localized parameters in Tianshui, which had a smaller A and bigger b, is significantly different to common ones; Tianshui new generation weather radar may have a systematic problem of low echo intensity.
