GPM / IMERG Precipitation Data

SERVIR-hosted precipitation data from the Integrated Multi-satellitE Retrievals (IMERG) for Global Precipitation Mission (GPM). The IMERG algorithm intercalibrates, merges and interpolates “all” satellite passive microwave precipitation estimates, together with microwave-calibrated infrared (IR) satellite estimates, monthly precipitation gauge analyses, and potentially other precipitation estimators at fine time and space scales for the TRMM and GPM eras over the entire globe. The hosted datasets will include a 30 minute precipitation intensity, as well as a 1 day precipitation accumulation. The precipitation data are measured in tenths of a millimeter (mm x 10^1).
