GPM GV Radar Data
|
The Global Precipitation Measurement Mission (GPM) Ground Validation (GV)
program ingests radar data from approximately 90 sites. The data is first
quality controlled then processed to add rain rate, hydro-meteor
identification, median volume diameter, and normalized intercept parameter.
