GPM GROUND VALIDATION ENVIRONMENT CANADA (EC) WEB CAMERA IMAGES GCPEX V1

The GPM Ground Validation Environment Canada (EC) Web Camera Images GCPEx were taken at 5 site locations in Ontario, Canada during the GPM Cold-season Precipitation Experiment (GCPEx), which occurred January 15 through March 1, 2012. GCPEx addressed shortcomings in the GPM snowfall retrieval algorithm by collecting microphysical properties, associated remote sensing observations, and coordinated model simulations of precipitating snow. Mounted as a fixed outdoor camera, the AXIS P1343-E network camera had day/night functionality with an automatically controlled IR filter, adapting to both daylight and dark lighting conditions. These images provided visual records throughout the day of the weather conditions at each site.

加拿大环境部（EC）在2012年1月15日至3月1日进行的GPM（全球降水测量）冷季降水实验（GCPEx）期间，于加拿大安大略省的5个地点采集了GPM地面验证环境中的AXIS P1343-E网络摄像头图像。GCPEx旨在解决GPM降雪检索算法的不足，通过收集微物理特性、相关的遥感观测数据以及协调的降雪模型模拟来达成目的。该网络摄像头作为固定式户外摄像头，具备日夜转换功能，并配备自动控制的红外滤光片，能够适应白天和黑夜的光照条件。这些图像为每个地点的天气状况提供了全天的视觉记录。
