This website presents PISCOp V2.1, a new local blended gridded rainfall dataset, headed by the National Service of Meteorology and Hydrology of Peru (SENAMHI).

PISCOp V.2.1 contains daily and monthly rainfall grids at 0.1° computed for 1981–2018*. It is built using serially complete raingauge datasets, CHIRP V2.0(without raingauge stations), radar-gauge merged precipitation climatologies, geostatistics and deterministic interpolation methods, and a simple monthly correction factor applied to daily estimates. More details see the paper here.

STATE OF PISCOp (README!)

Currently, SENAMHI has SUSPENDED the support for the generation of PISCOp V2.1 at near-real-time (latency of eight weeks). It means that you do not be able for access to PISCOp V2.1 rainfall values for dates after to 2018-06-30 (at least by this website). If you need recent PISCOp V2.1 information, please get in contact with Waldo Lavado (wlavado@senamhi.gob.pe) or Fiorella Vega (fvega@senamhi.gob.pe). See the last link about PISCOp at SENAMHI website here.
