GCIP/GIST: Surface Hourly Surface Composite
Summary
The GCIP/GIST Hourly Surface Composite contains data from several networks: Automated Surface Observing System (ASOS), Automated Weather Observing System (AWOS), Oklahoma Mesonet, DOE Atmospheric Radiation Measurements (ARM), Southern Great Plains, Wind Profiler Demonstration Network, High Plains Climate network, and NCDC Surface Aviation Observation (SAO) sites. Data from 343 stations were reformatted, merged, and quality controlled to form this composite. These data files are available as ASCII text files and netCDF data files.
