GPM Ground Validation NEXRAD Level III KMPX IFloodS V1
The GPM Ground Validation NEXRAD Level III KMPX IFloodS dataset contain precipitation products derived from selected NEXt Generation Weather RADar system (NEXRAD) radars in operation during the Iowa Flood Studies (IFloodS) field campaign to help support the ground validation of the Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM). NEXRAD is a network of 160 stationary S-Band radars dispersed throughout the United States and select locations abroad. Data were gathered from four NEXRAD stations in the vicinity of the IFloodS campaign during March 29, 2013 through June 18, 2013. This dataset contains data files of digital instantaneous precipitation rate (DPR) and storm total accumulation estimates (DTA) in NIDS binary format.
