Rain gauge locations for the Brazilian rainforest-savanna transition zone

These data are the rain gauge location components of a curated set of historical daily rainfall and streamflow data for a large region spanning the southern Amazonian rainforest and tropical savanna biomes of Brazil.

Rain gauge location attributes include: a site ID (\"site\"); the state within which the rain gauge is located (\"state\"); and the elevation in m above sea level (\"elevation\"). Rainfall gauge locations were obtained from free, publicly-available historical records from the Brazilian water management agency: Agência Nacional de Águas (ANA). Elevation data was obtained from SRTM 90m Digital Elevation Database v4.1.

For each unique site, there exists a corresponding time series record (see \"Rain gauge data for the Brazilian rainforest-savanna transition zone\"); these are identified by the same site ID numbers.
