Digital Earth Africa CHIRPS Rainfall

Digital Earth Africa (DE Africa) provides free and open access to a copy of the Climate Hazards Group InfraRed Precipitation with Station data (CHIRPS) monthly and daily products over Africa. The CHIRPS rainfall maps are produced and provided by the Climate Hazards Center in collaboration with the US Geological Survey, and use both rain gauge and satellite observations. The CHIRPS-2.0 Africa Monthly dataset is regularly indexed to DE Africa from the CHIRPS monthly data. The CHIRPS-2.0 Africa Daily dataset is likewise indexed from the CHIRPS daily data. Both products have been converted to cloud-opitmized GeoTIFFs, and can be accessed through DE Africa’s Open Data Cube. This means the full archive of CHIRPS daily and monthly rainfall can be easily used for inspection or analysis across DE Africa platforms, including the user-interactive DE Africa Map. For more information on the dataset, see the <a href="https://www.chc.ucsb.edu/data/chirps">CHIRPS website</a>.

非洲数字地球（DE Africa）无偿且开放地提供非洲地区气候灾害小组红外降水与站点数据（CHIRPS）的月度和日度产品副本。CHIRPS降水图由气候灾害中心与美国地质调查局合作制作并提供，结合了雨量计和卫星观测数据。CHIRPS-2.0非洲月度数据集定期从CHIRPS月度数据中索引至DE Africa。同样，CHIRPS-2.0非洲日度数据集亦从CHIRPS日度数据中索引。这两个产品均已转换为云优化GeoTIFF格式，并通过DE Africa的开放数据立方体进行访问。这意味着CHIRPS每日和月度降水数据的完整档案可以方便地在DE Africa平台，包括用户交互式的DE Africa地图上，进行检视或分析。有关数据集的更多信息，请参阅<a href="https://www.chc.ucsb.edu/data/chirps">CHIRPS网站</a>。
