Questions about Rain Data How will the rainfall data be used in analysis? How interested are we in understanding the process of collecting rainfall data better? Should we investigate further to develop a model of rainfall data collection? Is this germane to Basis Risk estimation? Are we interested in improving this process? Replacing the standard gauges with more sophisticated gauges for instance?
