The Next Generation Weather Radar (NEXRAD) Quantitative Precipitation Estimates (QPE) Climate Data Record (CDR) provides radar-only and radar-gauge merged precipitation products, as well as ancillary information on precipitation type and radar quality. The initial dataset spans from January 2002–December 2011. The output data is delineated into 11 precipitation types, and the algorithm description document contains more details on output and processing.
