## Evaluating Precipitation Datasets

This set of tutorials were developed around the question of "Which precipitation dataset should we use for our task?". We started dig into this question by seeing the differences in the datasets across a basin Plotting Climatologies Tutorial. That allowed us to visualize the differences in values between datasets and see which datasets matched other data sources the best. Next, we realized we wanted to not just compare the datasets across a basin, but also compare them against station data Plot Station Precipitation Data vs. Gridded Precipitation Data. Through that analysis we found that the stations location within the gridded dataset pixel influenced how well it tracked the station data. Finally, we found it would be useful to also understand how precipitation values vary across datasets as elevation changes Precipitation Elevation Analysis.
