Quality
Rainfall measurements from the different locations are compared to each other
and to the water levels recorded at those locations to check for
inconsistencies. Air temperature and humidity sensors are checked against
real-time data to check funtionality of equipment. These data are also compared
to those obtained from other nearby weather stations.

Access Constraints
Requests for data should be directed to the DWP Research Coordinator. Data will
be provided in electronic format.

Use Constraints
Any reports or publications presenting or referring to these datasets must be
approved by the DWP Research Coordinator prior to publication. Proper credit
must be given to DWP and The Nature Conservancy.
