Three datasets containing climate data, compiled in April 2011, have been purchased from the Bureau of Meteorology. These datasets include observations from stations in all Australian States and Territories. Each dataset includes a file which gives details of the stations where observations were made and a file describing the data. AWS Hourly Data contains hourly records of precipitation, air temperature, wet bulb temperature, dew point temperature, relative humidity, vapour pressure, saturated vapour pressure, wind speed, wind direction, maximum wind gust, mean sea level pressure, station level pressure. Each record for each parameter is also flagged to indicate the quality of the value.Synoptic Data contains records of air temperature, dew point temperature, wet bulb temperature, relative humidity, wind speed, wind direction, mean sea level pressure, station level pressure, QNH pressure, vapour pressure and saturated vapour pressure. Each record for each parameter is also flagged to indicate the quality of the value.Daily Rainfall Data contains records precipitation in the 24 hours before 9 am, number of days of rain within the days of accumulation and the accumulated number of days over which the precipitation was measured. Each precipitation record is flagged to indicate the quality of the value.
