Rain Gauge: GPM Precipitation Science Research Facility
Wallops PRF High-Density Gauge Network
A network of 25 indvidual gauge platforms (two gauge per platform) that were deployed
in a 5 km x 5 km area near Nassawadox, VA area from April 2012 to July 2013. Now
that the NPOL radar
has been deployed in the Newark, MD area, the network has been moved to
the Pocomoke area.

The Wallops GPM PRF is currently supporting two gauge and disdrometer networks.
A high density gauge grid is located in an around Pocomoke City, MD is aimed
towards validating space-based estimates on the scale of the nominal GPM DPR
footprint size of about 5 km. The second, larger grid, also includes the Pocomoke
network, but it's scale is approximately 0.5 degrees (lat & lon). This network
will serve to better validate both DPR and GMI observations and is well sampled
by NASA's NPOL radar, which is
located in Newark, MD. The 0.5 degree scale is roughly bounded by Chincoteague, VA
to the southeast; Crisfield, MD to the southwest; Salisbury, MD to the north; and,
Newark, MD to the northeast.
