SGP/OKM/X1 - Overview of Automated Data Quality - December 2001
DataStreams:sgp05okmX1.b1, sgp15okmX1.b1, sgp05okmX1.a1, sgp15okmX1.a1
Description:
Below is an overview from Janet Martinez, the Mesonet QA manager
of the automated quality assurance results for the December 2001
Oklahoma Mesonet data.
==============================================================
Notes:

The Mesonet Technicians completed the Fall Pass 2001 in late  

December.  Over 1800 site photos were taken.  We are preparing a CD 

that will contain all photos, accomplishments, site visitation 

forms and special findings.  The CD will be available next month.

 

The Technicians also resolved 59 trouble tickets in December!  In 

addition to the tickets shown in this report, their work included 

scheduled rotations of wind monitors and soil temperature sensors,  

as well as replacements of site batteries and rain gauge switches.

 

The monthly analysis identified the site with the maximum rainfall. 

Mt. Herman received 11.8 inches in December, with 7.8 inches falling 

in a single day (December 16)!  

 

In late November, a widespread freezing rain event impacted southern

and eastern Oklahoma.  The wind data from 27 stations were deemed 

erroneous and appropriately flagged in the database.
