# EURADCLIM-tools: Tools to accumulate and visualize OPERA & EURADCLIM radar data and to perform climatological analyses.

# Introduction
EURADCLIM (EUropean RADar CLIMatology) is a publicly available climatological dataset of 1-h and 24-h precipitation accumulations on a 2-km grid for the period 2013 through 2020. The starting point is the European Meteorological Network (EUMETNET) Operational Program on the Exchange of weather RAdar Information (OPERA) gridded radar dataset of 15-min instantaneous surface rain rates, which is based on data from, on average, 138 ground-based weather radars. After additional removal of non-meteorological echoes by three algorithms, this dataset is merged with precipitation accumulations from potentially ~7700 rain gauges obtained from the European Climate Assessment & Dataset (ECA&D). EURADCLIM covers about 78% of geographical Europe.
