Data Description:
Climate Hazards Group InfraRed Precipitation with Station Data (CHIRPS) is a global high-resolution dataset of precipitation that combines satellite imagery with ground-based station observations. The CHIRPS dataset provides monthly, decadal (every ten days), and daily precipitation data at a resolution of approximately 5 kilometres.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The CHIRPS dataset was developed by the Climate Hazards Group at the University of California, Santa Barbara, in collaboration with the United States Geological Survey (USGS). It is based on a combination of infrared satellite imagery from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's (NOAA) Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite (GOES) system and ground-based station observations from a variety of sources, including national meteorological agencies and non-governmental organizations.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The CHIRPS dataset is particularly useful for regions of the world where ground-based station observations are sparse or unreliable, as the satellite imagery provides an alternative source of data. Additionally, the dataset incorporates corrections for systematic biases in both the satellite and station data, resulting in more accurate precipitation estimates.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The CHIRPS dataset is available for download from the Climate Hazards Group website and is updated on a daily basis. The dataset has been used in a wide range of applications, including drought monitoring, crop yield forecasting, and water resource management.
