CHIRPS Precipitation Daily Near-Real-Time: Climate Hazards Center InfraRed Precipitation With Station Data (Version 3.0, IMERG-based)
The Climate Hazards Center Infrared Precipitation with Stations (CHIRPS v3) is a 40+ year, high-resolution quasi-global rainfall dataset. It spans 60°N to 60°S and covers all longitudes, providing data from 1981 to near-present. CHIRPS v3 combines satellite-based thermal infrared rainfall estimates with in-situ station observations to produce a 0.05° gridded rainfall time series over land. This is version 3.0 of the dataset, for more information see [the CHC page](https://www.chc.ucs
