Install the gpm_precipitation_tools package:

To download and pre-process the precipitation data (type directly in the command line):

PPT_CMD_RUN --ProdTP XXX --StartDate %Y-%m-%d --EndDate %Y-%m-%d --ProcessDir XXX --SptSlc XXX

To process the precipitation data and convert into timeseries or raster:

process_timeseries_files_pipeline --file_folder XXX --crs EPSG:XXXX --x_lon XX --y_lat YY --time %Y-%m-%d:%H%M%S

Where,

–ProdTP = ‘GPM_30min’ (default)

GPM_30min: GPM half-hourly (IMERGM v6)

GPM_D: GPM daily (IMERGM v6)

GPM_M: GPM monthly (IMERGM v6)

–StartDate = Insert the start date (format %Y-%M-%D)

–EndDate = Insert the end date (format %Y-%M-%D)

–ProcessDir = Insert the processing directory path

–SptSlc = Insert the cutline feature path (if not used, it assumes a global product)

–OP = Call this argument if you already have the data and want to process it. Make sure you have a directory with a raw files subfolder!!!!

–file_folder = Folder where the data to analyse lives.

–crs = Coordinate system in format EPSG:XXXX.

–x_lon = Longitude coordinate of the point of interest.

–y_lat = Latitude coordinate of the point of interest.

–time = Time of interest (format: %Y-%m-%d:%H%M%S)
