GIS based Spatial Precipitation Estimation using Next Generation Radar and Raingauge Data

Abstract

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 4km×4km).
