TEMBO Africa Rainfall Maps provide information about
precipitation height in mm, representing the depth of water that
would accumulate on a flat surface, if all rain remained where it
fell. They offer a spatial resolution of 5 km and update every 3
hours, and are produced at basin and (sub-)continental scale. For
this purpose, they make use of data from TAHMO
hydrometeorological stations, satellites, commercial microwave
links, X-band radar, intervalometers and GNSS, where appropriate.
