This project includes the full-swath GPM-GMI precipitation type flag retrieval for the year 2014. Due to file size limit, only March, April, June, July, August, November and December data are uploaded. Users are encouraged to contact the publisher for more days of retrievals. Retrieval is available at each GMI 1CR footprint as a probability. The reference paper is: Das, S., Y. Wang, J. Gong, et al. 2022. "A Comprehensive Machine Learning Study to Classify Precipitation Type over Land from Global Precipitation Measurement Microwave Imager (GPM-GMI) Measurements." Remote Sensing, 14 (15): 3631 [10.3390/rs14153631] Note that in the paper, retrievals are only available over land, but we made it available globally later on and are included in these data files. Users are directed to read the "README" file for details on how to screen and use the data. Two plotting sample codes are provided in IDL and Python respectively.
