This page describes and gives options for manipulating the NOAA NCEP CPC UNIFIED_PRCP GAUGE_BASED GLOBAL v1p0 dataset. We start with the options for manipulating, because once you are comfortable with the system, they are the most useful.


Dataset Options


NOAA NCEP CPC UNIFIED_PRCP GAUGE_BASED GLOBAL v1p0 options Help Expert Mode
Help/Terse
switches back and forth between this relatively descriptive page that contains extended explanations, and the page that just has the information.
Expert Mode
switches into a mode that lets you access several datasets at the same time, and enter data-manipulating commands directly as text rather than clicking on a series of pages.

When in Expert Mode there is a list of active datasets at the top of the page, followed by a text window containing the command equivalent of the current page. These commands can be edited or extended.

Note that there will be many more options once you have picked a particular variable, because the server is currently more adept at manipulating single variables than it is at manipulating datasets (e.g. collections of variables).
