GPM Ground Validation C-band Ikaalinen (IKA) Radar LPVEx V1

Published by NASA/MSFC/GHRC | National Aeronautics and Space Administration | Catalog Last Checked: May 18, 2026 at 03:36 PM | Dataset Last Updated: May 11, 2026
The GPM Ground Validation C-Band Radar LPVEx datasets include radar reflectivity data from the Ikaalinen (IKA) dual-polarimetric C-Band Doppler radar in Finland during the Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) mission Light Precipitation Validation Experiment (LPVEx) field campaign. This radar, along with four others, provided reflectivity measurements for light precipitation systems during LPVEx. This field campaign took place around the Gulf of Finland, aiming to provide additional high-latitude, light rainfall measurements for the improvement of GPM satellite precipitation algorithms. The Ikaalinen C-Band Radar data files are available in RAW and UF format for October 19, 2010.
