Project
Quality The ten-minute data is provided as is. Little effort was made to correct the data from the raw information retrieved from the weather stations. The data is readily available due to the minimal pre-processing.
Access Constraints None
Use Constraints None - the only request is that the Automatic Weather Station project,
Space Science and Engineering Center, University of Wisconsin-Madison
be given credit as the source of the data.
