Part of the reason this is possible for us is because the National Weather Service currently provides a free feed of raw (Level 2) radar data from their NEXRAD network (https://registry.opendata.aws/noaa-nexrad/).
Assuming other national data feeds could be acquired and decoded at a fairly low cost, then other feeds could theoretically be added.
I suppose whether or not this project is successful is probably the determining factor in our case.
When global?

Oh I see. Yeah that could be a bit of a constraint couldn't it? Well I wish you luck.
