Description

The dataset includes data from the stratiform precipitation event of September 1, 2019, comprising Doppler power spectra from radars at C-, Ku- and Ka-band, as well as the 2019-2021 of ground-based OTT Parsivel disdrometer observations. 

We have updated the data description to include the code repository, which comprises the power spectrum processing scripts for the C-, Ku-, and Ka-bands, the TDE calculation routines, as well as scripts for data processing and visualization.
