GCIP/ESOP-97 Surface: Daily Precipitation Composite
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/17.025

Summary
The Daily Precipitation Composite was formed from several data sources (i.e.,
National Centers for Environmental Prediction daily precipitation, National
Weather Service Cooperative Observers daily precipitation data, and the daily
precipitation data extracted from the ESOP-97 Hourly Precipitation Composite).
Data from these sources were quality controlled and merged to form this
precipitation composite.
