Summary of Day - First Order - ASOS
SOD First Order ASOS
The records in this collection were provided by the Automated Surface Observing Systems (ASOS) program, a joint effort between the National Weather Service (NWS), Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), and the Department of Defense (DOD). All data have been incorporated into the GHCN-Daily dataset as of 2013. The dataset consisted of summary of the day data from approximately 500 First Order stations (primarily major airports) in the U.S. and its possessions. Included variables are: daily summaries of hourly data for temperature, precipitation, pressure, observed weather, and wind speed and direction. Preliminary version of DSI 3210.

Lineage Statement | These data were collected by National Weather Service and FAA personnel. Data were then transmitted to NCDC, compiled, processed though automated quality control processes, and reformatted. Manual quality control updates have not been included in this dataset (see DSI 3210 for the highest quality version of this dataset.) In 2013, the data were incorporated into the GHCN-Daily dataset where they continue to be updated and maintained. |
Processing Environment | The data are available in ASCII flat files. The format is described in the associated documentation. |
