NASA’s Global Precipitation Measurement Mission (GPM) uses satellites to measure Earth's rain and snowfall for the benefit of mankind. Launched by NASA and JAXA on Feb. 27th, 2014, GPM is an international mission that sets the standard for spaceborne precipitation measurements.

The joint NASA / JAXA Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) mission has been tracking rain and snow around the globe for over 10 years, providing valuable insights into Earth's weather and climate. Now in its tenth year of operation, we look at ten events brought to light by this groundbreaking mission.

A new data product merges data from the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) and the Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) mission, giving meteorologists and researchers access to a 20-year precipitation record. How much rain and snow fall on Earth in any given year?

2014年3月12日 · 全球卫星降水计划 (GPM) 是一项国际卫星任务，由 NASA 和JAXA合作开展，利用多传感器多卫星多算法结合卫星网络和雨量计反演得到更高精度的降水数据，其能够提供全球范围基于微波的3h以内以及基于 微波红外 的半小时的雨雪数据产品，范围延伸至南北极圈。 GPM的数据产品主要分为: Level-1, Level-2和Level-3。 其中Level-1数据是卫星上观测仪器得到的基数据，Level-2的数据是以Level-1为基础在相同的分辨率和位置上处理导出的地球物理变量，Level-3 …
