Global Satellite Mapping Of Precipitation

Global satellite mapping of precipitation (gsmap) provides a global hourly rain rate with a 0.1. Gsmap contains rain rate estimates on a 0.1 degree gridded map. Precipitation is one of the most important parameters of the earth's system, and its global distribution and changes are essential data for modeling the water cycle,.

Global satellite mapping of precipitation (gsmap) provides a global hourly rain rate with a 0.1 x 0.1 degree resolution. In this paper, we will introduce development status of the latest gsmap algorithm, which will be distributed as one. This study evaluated the performance of three versions of global satellite mapping of precipitation (gsmap) products at 0.1° spatial resolution for monitoring meteorological drought over iran.

They are distributed by the japan aerospace exploration agency (jaxa) and use a newly developed algorithm for the gpm mission to retrieve rain rates (ushio et al., 2009).

Please select a start /end period. The gsmap_mvk product achieved a score comparable to the cmorph and the 3b42rt products. Global precipitation map from satellite data” started in november 2002 under the sponsorship of japan science and technology agency. In this paper, we will introduce development status of the latest gsmap algorithm, which will be distributed as one.
