The global satellite mapping of precipitation (GSMaP) project [PDF]
Precipitation is one of the most important parameters on the earth system, and the global distribution of precipitation and its change are essential data for modeling the water cycle, maintaining the ecosystem environment, agricultural production, improvements of the weather forecast precision, flood warning and so on.

Implementation of a Rainfall Normalization Module for GSMaP Microwave Imagers and Sounders
This paper introduces the Method of Microwave Rainfall Normalization (MMN) for the Global Satellite Mapping of Precipitation (GSMaP) algorithm in its latest version (V05, algorithm version 8), released in December 2021. The method aims to mitigate the discrepancy of GSMaP rainfall estimates among passive microwave (PMW) imagers/sounders (MWIs/MWSs) due

Evaluation of Global Satellite Mapping of Precipitation Project Daily Precipitation Estimates over the Chinese Mainland [PDF]
Two versions of Global Satellite Mapping of Precipitation (GSMaP) products (GSMaP-V4 and GSMaP-V5) are validated both in a single grid scale and in contiguous China by comparing to gauge-based rainfall analysis dataset. GSMaP products can capture spatial

Validation of Daily Rainfall Based on Global Satellite Mapping of Precipitation (GSMAP) Data of Bali and Nusa Tenggara Region [PDF]
Limitations of observation data cause analysis and prediction of precipitation is difficult. One way to overcome such limitations is the use of satellite data such as GSMaP, but satellite data needs to be validated before use. This study aims to validate

Precipitation Extremes Monitoring Using the Near-Real-Time GSMaP Product [PDF]
A need to monitor precipitation extremes from space is widely recognized, especially for regions where ground-based observations are limited or unavailable. This article examines the usefulness of precipitation extremes monitoring using the Global Satellite Mapping of Precipitation (GSMaP) near-real-time product in the East Asia and Western Pacific ...
