GPM Ground Validation Environment Canada (EC) Visibility Sensor FD12P C3VP V1

The GPM Ground Validation (GV) Environment Canada (EC) Visibility Sensor FD12P C3VP dataset consists of visibility and precipitation data collected at the Environment Canada Canadian Climate station at the Centre for Atmospheric Research Experiments (CARE) site during the Canadian CloudSat/CALIPSO Validation Project (C3VP) field campaign. The campaign took place in southern Canada in support of multiple science missions, including the NASA GPM mission, in order to improve the modeling and remote sensing of winter precipitation. The GPM GV Visibility Sensor FD12P C3VP data are available from October 4, 2006 through March 31, 2007 in a Microsoft Excel comma-separated variable spreadsheet.

加拿大环境与气候变化局（Environment Canada）在加拿大大气研究实验中心（Centre for Atmospheric Research Experiments，CARE）的加拿大气候站所收集的GPM地面验证（Ground Validation，GV）环境监测数据集，包括可见度和降水量数据。此数据集是在加拿大云卫星/云-气溶胶 lidar和偏振计卫星（CloudSat/CALIPSO）验证项目（C3VP）现场活动中收集的，活动地点位于加拿大南部，旨在支持包括美国国家航空航天局（NASA）的全球降水测量（GPM）任务在内的多项科学任务，以提升冬季降水的建模和遥感技术。GPM GV可见度传感器FD12P C3VP数据自2006年10月4日至2007年3月31日，以微软Excel逗号分隔变量格式进行存储并提供使用。
