Description: 4 km hourly accumulated Stage-IV precipitation dataset is downscaled to 1-km and corrected using rain-gauges located at the Southern Appalachians. In-situ rain-gauge data can be found at- DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.5067/GPMGV/IPHEX/GAUGES/DATA301 Spatial resolution - 0.01 degree Temporal resolution - 1 hour accumulations Units - mm Spatial Coverage - 35N to 36N and 83.6W to 82.6W Upper left corner pixel (1,1) - (35.005,-83.595) Time period - 2008 to 2017 Missing data - 'NaN' File naming convention: ST4DBKC_.txt yyyymmddhh - year month day hour - ending time of the accumulation period.
