ISS LIS data are available from the Global Hydrometeorology Resource
Center (GHRC) Distributed Active Archive Center (DAAC) via the Digital
Object Identifiers (DOIs) listed in the Blakeslee (2020a, b) references.
The TRMM and GPM RPF data (with LIS and WWLLN) are available for public
download from http://atmos.tamucc.edu/trmm/data/. CATS data are hosted
on the instrument’s archive at https://cats.gsfc.nasa.gov/data/. The
ISS_Camera_Geolocate software is available from the Lang (2019)
reference. The primary programming language used in the CATS/LIS
analysis was Python 3.7, with significant use of the following packages:
numpy, scipy, matplotlib, xarray, and h5py. Interactive Data Language
(IDL; https://www.l3harrisgeospatial.com/Software-Technology/IDL) was
used for the TRMM/GPM analysis.
