Rainfall and Cloud Products
The following products are produced from the Special Sensor Microwave/Imager SSM/I data on board the Defense Meteorological Satellite Program (DMSP) satellites. 5-day mean estimates are produced for the region from 60S to 60N and global in longitude at a spatial resolution of 0.5 by 0.5 degrees.
