DATASET OVERVIEW

Abstract

MLIT_XRAIN_CXMP_composite data are the composite precipitation data through synthesizing the radar-derived precipitation data estimated from the raw and intermediate data of all the X-MP & C-MP radars in Japan. This dataset has been archived since June 2017. It is noted that the covering area of this product has been gradually extended since each C-band radar has been upgraded into MP radar sequentially.

For details of the data format, please refer to the "XRAIN composite (X-band and C-band) data format" (written in Japanese only), which is available from the XRAIN Original Data Download System.

For more information on XRAIN and synthetic radar rainfall, please refer to the "Radar Rain Gauge for Practical Engineers" (in Japanese) on the website of the River Information Center of Japan, the URL of which is listed under "Online Information" below.
