Automatic and Visual Radar to Raingauge Quality Check - a Performance Comparison
نویسندگان
چکیده
a similar approach to the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Tropical Raifall Measuring Mission (TRMM) Ground Validation (GV) program for the Automated Quality Check (AQC) of 7-minute radar-gauge data pairs.. In particular, the AQC procedure is used in the form presented during the VOLTAIRE project (Gabella and Notarpietro, 2004) and as it is implemented in the VOLTAIRE data quality control library (Einfalt and Golz, 2006);

Reprint 968 Application of Radar-Raingauge Co-Kriging to Improve QPE and Quality Control of Real-time Rainfall Data
Quantitative precipitation estimation (QPE) often serves as an important input to hydrological and weather warning operations. Automatic raingauge (RG) data are not only fundamental in QPE but also act as the ground truth in warning operation and forecast validation. Quality control (QC) is required before the data can be used quantitatively due to systematic and random errors. Extremely large ...
متن کاملStream Flow Estimation Using Spatially Distributed Rainfall in the Trinity River Basin, Texas
Rainfall is the driving force behind all hydrologic processes in a watershed, and therefore the driving force in hydrologic modeling. In the past, raingauge data has been used as the primary input for these models. However, raingauge networks are generally sparse and insufficient to capture the spatial variability across large watersheds. A relatively new alternative is high−resolution radar ra...
متن کاملGeneral Linear Chirplet Transform and Radar Target Classification
In this paper, we design an attractivealgorithm aiming to classify moving targets includinghuman, animal, vehicle and drone, at groundsurveillance radar systems. The non-stationary reflectedsignal of the targets is represented with a novelmathematical framework based on behavior of thesignal components in reality. We further propose usingthe generalized linear chirp transform for the analysisst...
متن کاملGIS-based spatial precipitation estimation using next generation radar and raingauge data
Precipitation is one important input variable for land surface hydrologic and ecological models. Next Generation Radar (NEXRAD) can provide precipitation products that cover most of the conterminous United States at high resolution (approximately 4 km 4 km). There are two major issues concerning the application of NEXRAD data: 1) the lack of a NEXRAD geo-processing and geo-referring program and...
متن کاملA Robust SAR NLFM Waveform Selection Based on the Total Quality Assessment Techniques
Design, simulation and optimal selection of cosine-linear frequency modulation waveform (CNLFM) based on correlated ambiguity function (AF) method for the purpose of Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) is done in this article. The selected optimum CNLFM waveform in contribution with other waveforms are applied directly into a SAR image formation algorithm (IFA) and their quality effects performance ...
