Map InformationThis nowCOAST time-enabled map service provides maps of NOAA/National Weather Service RIDGE2 mosaics of base reflectivity images across the Continental United States (CONUS) as well as Puerto Rico, Hawaii, Guam and Alaska with a 2 kilometer (1.25 mile) horizontal resolution. The mosaics are compiled by combining regional base reflectivity radar data obtained from 158 Weather Surveillance Radar 1988 Doppler (WSR-88D) also known as NEXt-generation RADar (NEXRAD) sites across the country operated by the NWS and the Dept. of Defense and also from data from Terminal Doppler Weather Radars (TDWR) at major airports. The colors on the map represent the strength of the energy reflected back toward the radar. The reflected intensities (echoes) are measured in dBZ (decibels of z). The color scale is very similar to the one used by the NWS RIDGE2 map viewer. The radar data itself is updated by the NWS every 10 minutes during non-precipitation mode, but every 4-6 minutes during precipitation mode. To ensure nowCOAST is displaying the most recent data possible, the latest mosaics are downloaded every 5 minutes. For more detailed information about the update schedule, see: http://new.nowcoast.noaa.gov/help/#section=updatescheduleBackground InformationReflectivity is related to the power, or intensity, of the reflected radiation that is sensed by the radar antenna. Reflectivity is expressed on a logarithmic scale in units called dBZ. The "dB" in the dBz scale is logarithmic and is unit less, but is used only to express a ratio. The "z" is the ratio of the density of water drops (measured in millimeters, raised to the 6th power) in each cubic meter (mm^6/m^3). When the "z" is large (many drops in a cubic meter), the reflected power is large. A small "z" means little returned energy. In fact, "z" can be less than 1 mm^6/m^3 and since it is logarithmic, dBz values will become negative, as often in the case when the radar is in clear air mode and indicated by earth tone colors. dBZ values are related to the intensity of rainfall. The higher the dBZ, the stronger the rain rate. A value of 20 dBZ is typically the point at which light rain begins. The values of 60 to 65 dBZ is about the level where 3/4 inch hail can occur. However, a value of 60 to 65 dBZ does not mean that severe weather is occurring at that location. The best reflectivity is lowest (1/2 degree elevation angle) reflectivity scan from the radar. The source of the base reflectivity mosaics is the NWS Southern Region Radar Integrated Display with Geospatial Elements (RIDGE2).Time InformationThis map is time-enabled, meaning that each individual layer contains time-varying data and can be utilized by clients capable of making map requests that include a time component.This particular service can be queried with or without the use of a time component. If the time parameter is specified in a request, the data or imagery most relevant to the provided time value, if any, will be returned. If the time parameter is not specified in a request, the latest data or imagery valid for the present system time will be returned to the client. If the time parameter is not specified and no data or imagery is available for the present time, no data will be returned.In addition to ArcGIS Server REST access, time-enabled OGC WMS 1.3.0 access is also provided by this service.Due to software limitations, the time extent of the service and map layers displayed below does not provide the most up-to-date start and end times of available data. Instead, users have three options for determining the latest time information about the service:Issue a returnUpdates=true request for an individual layer or for the service itself, which will return the current start and end times of available data, in epoch time format (milliseconds since 00:00 January 1, 1970).

Map Information

This nowCOAST™ time-enabled map service provides maps depicting the NWS Multi-Radar Multi-Sensor (MRMS) quantitative precipitation estimate mosaics for 1-, 3-, 6-, 12-, 24-, 48-, and 72-hr time periods at a 1 km (0.6 miles) horizontal resolution for CONUS and southern part of Canada. The precipitation estimates are based only on radar data. The total precipitation amount is indicated by different colors at 0.01, 0.10, 0.25 inches and then at 1/4 inch intervals up to 4.0 inches (e.g. 0.50, 0.75, 1.00, 1.25, etc.), at 1-inch intervals from 4 to 10 inches and then at 2-inch intervals up to 14+ inches. The increments from 0.01 to 1.00 or 2.00 inches are similar to what are used on NCEP's Weather Prediction Center QPF products and the NWS River Forecast Center (RFC) daily precipitation analysis. The 1-hr mosaic is updated every 4 minutes with a latency on nowCOAST™ of about 6-7 minutes from valid time. The 3-, 6-, 12-, and 24-hr QPEs are updated on nowCOAST™ every hour for the period ending at the top of the hour. The 48- and 72-hr QPEs are generated daily for the period ending at 12 UTC (i.e. 7AM EST) and available on nowCOAST™ shortly afterwards. For more detailed information about layer update frequency and timing, please reference the
nowCOAST™ Dataset Update Schedule.

Background Information

The NWS Multi-Radar Multi-Sensor System (MRMS)/Q3 QPEs are radar-only based quantitative precipitation analyses. The 1-hr precipitation accumulation is obtained by aggregating 12 instantaneous rate fields. Missing rate fields are filled with the neighboring rate fields if the data gap is not significantly large (e.g.<=15 minutes). The instantaneous rate is computed from the hybrid scan reflectivity and the precipitation flag fields (both are 2-D derivative products from the National 3-D Reflectivity Mosaic grid which has a 1-km horizontal resolution, 31 vertical levels and a 5-minute update cycle). The instantaneous rate currently uses four Z-R relationships (i.e. tropical, convective, stratiform, or snow). The particular ZR relationship used in any grid cell depends on precipitation type which is indicated by the precipitation flag. The other accumulation products are derived by aggregating the hourly accumulations. The 1-hr QPE are generated every 4 minutes, while the 3-, 6-, 12-, and 24-hr accumulations are generated every hour at the top of the hour. The 48- and 72-hr QPEs are updated daily at approximately 12 UTC. MRMS was developed by NOAA/OAR/National Severe Storms Laboratory and migrated into NWS operations at NOAA Integrated Dissemination Program.

Time Information

This map service is time-enabled, meaning that each individual layer contains time-varying data and can be utilized by clients capable of making map requests that include a time component.

In addition to ArcGIS Server REST access, time-enabled OGC WMS 1.3.0 access is also provided by this service.

This particular service can be queried with or without the use of a time component. If the time parameter is specified in a request, the data or imagery most relevant to the provided time value, if any, will be returned. If the time parameter is not specified in a request, the latest data or imagery valid for the present system time will be returned to the client. If the time parameter is not specified and no data or imagery is available for the present time, no data will be returned.

This service is configured with time coverage support, meaning that the service will always return the most relevant available data, if any, to the specified time value. For example, if the service contains data valid today at 12:00 and 12:10 UTC, but a map request specifies a time value of today at 12:07 UTC, the data valid at 12:10 UTC will be returned to the user. This behavior allows more flexibility for users, especially when displaying multiple time-enabled layers together despite slight differences in temporal resolution or update frequency.

When interacting with this time-enabled service, only a single instantaneous time value should be specified in each request. If instead a time range is specified in a request (i.e. separate start time and end time values are given), the data returned may be different than what was intended.

Care must be taken to ensure the time value specified in each request falls within the current time coverage of the service. Because this service is frequently updated as new data becomes available, the user must periodically determine the service's time extent. However, due to software limitations, the time extent of the service and map layers as advertised by ArcGIS Server does not always provide the most up-to-date start and end times of available data. Instead, users have three options for determining the latest time extent of the service:

  Issue a returnUpdates=true request (ArcGIS REST protocol only)
  for an individual layer or for the service itself, which will return
  the current start and end times of available data, in epoch time format
  (milliseconds since 00:00 January 1, 1970). To see an example, click on
  the "Return Updates" link at the bottom of the REST Service page under
  "Supported Operations". Refer to the
  ArcGIS REST API Map Service Documentation
  for more information.


  Issue an Identify (ArcGIS REST) or GetFeatureInfo (WMS) request against
  the proper layer corresponding with the target dataset. For raster
  data, this would be the "Image Footprints with Time Attributes" layer
  in the same group as the target "Image" layer being displayed. For
  vector (point, line, or polygon) data, the target layer can be queried
  directly. In either case, the attributes returned for the matching
  raster(s) or vector feature(s) will include the following:


      validtime: Valid timestamp.


      starttime: Display start time.


      endtime: Display end time.


      reftime: Reference time (sometimes referred to as
      issuance time, cycle time, or initialization time).


      projmins: Number of minutes from reference time to valid
      time.


      desigreftime: Designated reference time; used as a
      common reference time for all items when individual reference
      times do not match.


      desigprojmins: Number of minutes from designated
      reference time to valid time.




  Query the nowCOAST™ LayerInfo web service, which has been created to
  provide additional information about each data layer in a service,
  including a list of all available "time stops" (i.e. "valid times"),
  individual timestamps, or the valid time of a layer's latest available
  data (i.e. "Product Time"). For more information about the LayerInfo
  web service, including examples of various types of requests, refer to
  the 
  nowCOAST™ LayerInfo Help Documentation

Visitation to Radar site to do GIS Survey practical for SPREP GIS and Data Management training 26th June 2024.

The rainfall data inter-comparison dataset is a collection of precipitation statistics calculated from the hourly nationwide German radar climatology (RADKLIM) and radar online adjustment (RADOLAN) composites provided by the German Weather Service (Deutscher Wetterdienst, DWD), which were combined with rainfall statistics derived from rain gauge data for inter-comparison. Moreover, additional information on parameters that can potentially influence radar data quality, such as the height above sea level, information on wind energy plants and the distance to the next radar station, were included in the dataset. The dataset consists of two point shapefiles which are readable with all common GIS. It constitutes a spatially highly resolved rainfall statistics geodataset for the period 2006 - 2017, which can be used for statistical rainfall analyses or for the derivation of model inputs. Furthermore, this data collection has the potential to benefit all users who intend to use precipitation data for any purpose in Germany and to identify the rainfall dataset that is best suited for their application by a straightforward comparison of three rainfall datasets without any tedious data processing and georeferencing.

Overview:
The Copernicus DEM is a Digital Surface Model (DSM) which represents the surface of the Earth including buildings, infrastructure and vegetation. The original GLO-30 provides worldwide coverage at 30 meters (refers to 10 arc seconds). Note that ocean areas do not have tiles, there one can assume height values equal to zero. Data is provided as Cloud Optimized GeoTIFFs. Note that the vertical unit for measurement of elevation height is meters.

The Copernicus DEM for Europe at 3 arcsec (0:00:03 = 0.00083333333 ~ 90 meter) in COG format has been derived from the Copernicus DEM GLO-30, mirrored on Open Data on AWS, dataset managed by Sinergise (https://registry.opendata.aws/copernicus-dem/).

Processing steps:
The original Copernicus GLO-30 DEM contains a relevant percentage of tiles with non-square pixels. We created a mosaic map in VRT format and defined within the VRT file the rule to apply cubic resampling while reading the data, i.e. importing them into GRASS GIS for further processing. We chose cubic instead of bilinear resampling since the height-width ratio of non-square pixels is up to 1:5. Hence, artefacts between adjacent tiles in rugged terrain could be minimized:

gdalbuildvrt -input_file_list list_geotiffs_MOOD.csv -r cubic -tr 0.000277777777777778 0.000277777777777778 Copernicus_DSM_30m_MOOD.vrt

In order to reduce the spatial resolution to 3 arc seconds, weighted resampling was performed in GRASS GIS (using r.resamp.stats -w and the pixel values were scaled with 1000 (storing the pixels as integer values) for data volume reduction. In addition, a hillshade raster map was derived from the resampled elevation map (using r.relief, GRASS GIS). Eventually, we exported the elevation and hillshade raster maps in Cloud Optimized GeoTIFF (COG) format, along with SLD and QML style files.

Culminating more than four years of processing data, NASA and the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA) have completed Earth's most extensive global topographic map. The mission is a collaboration among NASA, NGA, and the German and Italian space agencies. For 11 days in February 2000, the space shuttle Endeavour conducted the Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM) using C-Band and X-Band interferometric synthetic aperture radars to acquire topographic data over 80% of the Earth's land mass, creating the first-ever near-global data set of land elevations. This data was used to produce topographic maps (digital elevation maps) 30 times as precise as the best global maps used today. The SRTM system gathered data at the rate of 40,000 per minute over land. They reveal for the first time large, detailed swaths of Earth's topography previously obscured by persistent cloudiness. The data will benefit scientists, engineers, government agencies and the public with an ever-growing array of uses. The SRTM radar system mapped Earth from 56 degrees south to 60 degrees north of the equator. The resolution of the publicly available data is three arc-seconds (1/1,200th of a degree of latitude and longitude, about 295 feet, at Earth's equator). The final data release covers Australia and New Zealand in unprecedented uniform detail. It also covers more than 1,000 islands comprising much of Polynesia and Melanesia in the South Pacific, as well as islands in the South Indian and Atlantic oceans. SRTM data are being used for applications ranging from land use planning to "virtual" Earth exploration. Currently, the mission's homepage "http://www.jpl.nasa.gov/srtm" provides direct access to recently obtained earth images. The Shuttle Radar Topography Mission C-band data for North America and South America are available to the public. A list of complete public data set is available at "http://www2.jpl.nasa.gov/srtm/dataprod.htm" The data specifications are within the following parameters: 30-meter X 30-meter spatial sampling with 16 meter absolute vertical height accuracy, 10-meter relative vertical height accuracy, and 20-meter absolute horizontal circular accuracy. From the JPL Mission Products Summary, "http://www.jpl.nasa.gov/srtm/dataprelimdescriptions.html". The primary products of the SRTM mission are the digital elevation maps of most of the Earth's surface. Visualized images of these maps are available for viewing online. Below you will find descriptions of the types of images that are being generated:

• Radar Image
• Radar Image with Color as Height
• Radar Image with Color Wrapped Fringes
  -Shaded Relief
• Perspective View with B/W Radar Image Overlaid
• Perspective View with Radar Image Overlaid, Color as Height
• Perspective View of Shaded Relief
• Perspective View with Landsat or other Image Overlaid
• Contour Map - B/W with Contour Lines
• Stereo Pair
• Anaglypgh

The SRTM radar contained two types of antenna panels, C-band and X-band. The near-global topographic maps of Earth called Digital Elevation Models (DEMs) are made from the C-band radar data. These data were processed at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory and are being distributed through the United States Geological Survey's EROS Data Center. Data from the X-band radar are used to create slightly higher resolution DEMs but without the global coverage of the C-band radar. The SRTM X-band radar data are being processed and distributed by the German Aerospace Center, DLR.

The map package files (merged.mpk) were prepared and can be opened by Arc Gis 10.8.2 and above versions. The map package data files include the SAR data (RISAT-1 from ISRO-Bhoonidhi) in HH,HV- polarizations, DEM ( USGS ) and IRS LISS III (Bhuvan-NRSC) data with the 30m spatial resolution were downloaded from the respective websites. Geology data in 1:50,000 scale is downloaded from GSI Bhukosh. The resolution merged data of Optical and SAR data has been prepared using Brovey transform in ERDAS 2015 software. The output file have advantages of both optical and microwave features. Extracted the Lineaments(.shp) from the coupled data of merged SAR and improved and verified with the DEM, Optical, SAR and Geology data sets. All these data generation and Statistical calculation done with the help of ArcGIS software. ArcGIS guide will help to create shape files, Attribute table calculations of length, classification. Azumutal trend calculations of each lineaments done using Split lines and other geometric calculations giving the trend of each lineament and finally export the map (All .jpg files). Rose diagrams was prepared based on the trend of lineaments with the help of Rockworks 17 software. The generated Azimuthal trend data in lineament shape file can be import to linears - utilites - Rose diagram. I was prepared Rose diagram of different class of lineaments using frequency calculation method. Lineaments are the linear geological features can extend from few meters to hundreds of kms. Geologically lineaments are either structural or stratigraphical, typically it will comprise fault, fold axis, bedding contacts, dyke intrusions, shear zone or a straight coast line. Mapping lineaments using remote sensing is economical, faster can act as a preliminary study. Generally lineaments have been mapped using the optical remote sensing data such as Landsat, Resourcesat etc. For India, Lineaments were mapped using the LISS III and LISS IV of Resourcesat-1 & 2 at a scale of 1:50k. However in tropical region like India, limited exposure of ground due to vegetation cover, lineaments may go unnoticed in optical remote sensing data. This problem can be overcome by Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) data, which can penetrate ground significantly. With the launch of RISAT-1satelite, data availability of SAR data is immense for Indian region. Aim of this study to explore the SAR data and merged SAR and optical data for lineament mapping.
