CPC CMORPH

Description: The Satellite Precipitation - CMORPH Climate Data Record (CDR) consists of satellite precipitation estimates that have been bias corrected and reprocessed using the the Climate Prediction Center (CPC) Morphing Technique (MORPH) to form a global, high resolution precipitation analysis. Data is reprocessed on a global grid with daily temporal resolution.

Organization: NOAA Climate Prediction Center

Spatial resolution: 25-km (1/2-deg x 1/2-deg)

Time Span: 1998-01-01 to Present (updated daily)

Variables:

  • Precipitation
  • Standardized Precipitation Index - Climate Engine calculates this on-the-fly from Precipitation

Website: NOAA CMORPH Website

Earth Engine Community Catalog: 

  • This CPC CMORPH dataset has been ingested into Earth Engine by Climate Engine and is available for use through asset id projects/climate-engine-pro/assets/noaa-cpc-cmorph/daily.
  • Coming soon to the Earth Engine Community Catalog.
