The stations are operated by the National Weather Service (NWS), the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), the U.S. Air Force (Air Weather Service), and the U.S. Navy (Navy Weather Detachment). The NWS and FAA sites are located in the contiguous U.S., Alaska, Puerto Rico, Hawaii and other Pacific Islands. The Air Force and Navy operate stations worldwide; however, only a few are included in this set. The observations are generally recorded midnight to midnight for the 24-hour period. The major data parameters are clouds, visibility, wind, temperature, sky cover, relative humidity, pressure, and descriptive weather. The earliest data is for 1938 but most stations begin in 1948. There are about 300 stations. TD14 refers to the NCDC format of the original data up through 1983, which has been converted into a packed binary format; TD3280 refers to the ASCII format used at NCDC beginning with the 1984 data. This set was retired from production at NCDC after 2005. completed datahelp@ucar.edu pointOfContact notPlanned dataset NCDC TD3280 Binary dataset Resource Type 2021-03-30 revision 4.4 DataCite Metadata Working Group orginator resourceTypeGeneral FIXED OBSERVATION STATIONS > FIXED OBSERVATION STATIONS GROUND STATIONS > GROUND STATIONS METEOROLOGICAL STATIONS > METEOROLOGICAL STATIONS WEATHER STATIONS > WEATHER STATIONS U.S. National Aeronautics and Space Administration Global Change Master Directory GCMD 2026-02-27 revision 23.4 NASA Global Change Master Directory orginator Valids List: Platforms EARTH SCIENCE > ATMOSPHERE > AIR QUALITY > VISIBILITY EARTH SCIENCE > ATMOSPHERE > ATMOSPHERIC PRESSURE > SEA LEVEL PRESSURE EARTH SCIENCE > ATMOSPHERE > ATMOSPHERIC PRESSURE > SURFACE PRESSURE EARTH SCIENCE > ATMOSPHERE > ATMOSPHERIC TEMPERATURE > SURFACE TEMPERATURE > AIR TEMPERATURE EARTH SCIENCE > ATMOSPHERE > ATMOSPHERIC TEMPERATURE > SURFACE TEMPERATURE > DEW POINT TEMPERATURE EARTH SCIENCE > ATMOSPHERE > ATMOSPHERIC WATER VAPOR > WATER VAPOR INDICATORS > HUMIDITY EARTH SCIENCE > ATMOSPHERE > ATMOSPHERIC WINDS > SURFACE WINDS EARTH SCIENCE > ATMOSPHERE > CLOUDS > CLOUD PROPERTIES > CLOUD BASE HEIGHT EARTH SCIENCE > ATMOSPHERE > CLOUDS > CLOUD PROPERTIES > CLOUD FREQUENCY EARTH SCIENCE > ATMOSPHERE > CLOUDS > CLOUD TYPES U.S. National Aeronautics and Space Administration Global Change Master Directory GCMD 2026-02-27 revision 23.4 NASA Global Change Master Directory orginator Valids List: Science and Services Keywords Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License None eng utf-8 climatologyMeteorologyAtmosphere 1938-01-01 2005-12-31 NSF NCAR Geoscience Data Exchange datahelp@ucar.edu https://gdex.ucar.edu distributor 12128.108 https://gdex.ucar.edu/datasets/d470000/ https Dataset Description Related Link information https://gdex.ucar.edu/datasets/d470000/dataaccess/ https Data Access Related Link download none asNeeded
