ABSTRACT

A routine was implemented to compare the data among Rain Gauges, TropiNet and NEXRAD data. The NEXRAD pixels have 1 km2 area and the TropiNet pixels have 60 meter for each side (0.0036 km2 area). This means that 256 TropiNet pixels is equivalent in size to one NEXRAD pixel. In other words, within one NEXRAD pixel there are 256 TropiNet pixels. Two comparison types were done: the first was pixel to pixel, and the second was average TropiNet pixels (256) with one NEXRAD pixel.
