Abstract

This resource enables users to retrieve Multi-Radar Multi-Sensor (MRMS) rainfall data for selected locations based on a given shapefile. The included Jupyter Notebook guides users to perform geospatial analysis of the region of interest and retrieve data accordingly. It facilitates the visualization of rainfall data over specified areas and time periods. This tool supports environmental studies, urban planning, and any field where precise weather data analysis is crucial. The resource is designed to be user-friendly, accommodating users with varying levels of technical expertise in handling and analyzing geospatial data. This resource was developed as part of the activities for developing low-cost rainfall sensors under the CUAHSI INSTRUMENTATION DISCOVERY TRAVEL GRANT. It serves as a supportive tool for validating and calibrating rainfall measurements obtained from these sensors.
