| # Dataset Card for 3D-NEXRAD | |
| <!-- Provide a quick summary of the dataset. --> | |
| 3D gridded radar reflectivity data collected from the U.S.NEXRAD WSR-88D radar network. | |
| ## Dataset Description | |
| <!-- Provide a longer summary of what this dataset is. --> | |
| The **3D-NEXRDA** dataset comprises 3D radar observations of severe storm events across the United States, with each event captured at different geographic locations. | |
| The dataset provides high-resolution insights into storm dynamics with high temporal and spatial resolution. | |
| - **Temporal Coverage:** | |
| - **Time Span:** 2022.01.01 - 2022.12.31 | |
| - **Interval and Event Duration:** 25 frames for each sequence spanning a period of 125 minutes per event | |
| **we are actively working to expand this dataset to cover the period from 2020 to 2022** | |
| - **Spatial Dimensions:** | |
| - **Horizontal Resolution:** 512 × 512 for Each observation frame | |
| - **Vertical Resolution:** 28 levels, from 0.5 km to 7 km with 0.5 km intervals, and from 7 km to 22 km with 1 km intervals | |
| - **Available Variables:** 7 radar variables: | |
| - Radar Reflectivity | |
| - Velocity Spectrum Width | |
| - Azimuthal Shear of the Radial Velocity | |
| - Radial Divergence of the Radial Velocity | |
| - Differential Radar Reflectivity | |
| - Specific Differential Phase | |
| - Copolar Correlation Coefficient | |
| - **Data Source:** | |
