NASA's Global Precipitation Measurement Mission (GPM) provide advanced information on rain and snow characteristics and detailed three-dimensional knowledge of precipitation structure within the atmosphere, which help scientists study and understand Earth's water cycle, weather and climate.

The Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM), one of the spacecraft in the NASA Earth Probe series of research satellites, is a highly focused, limited-objective program aimed at measuring monthly and seasonal rainfall over the global tropics and subtropics.

TRMM Microwave Imager (TMI) The Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission's (TRMM) Microwave Imager (TMI) is a passive microwave sensor designed to provide quantitative rainfall information over a wide swath under the TRMM satellite.

Building upon the success of TRMM launched in 1997, NASA and JAXA successfully deployed the Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) mission on February 28, 2014. GPM started to release the new-generation global precipitation products Integrated Multi-satellite Retrievals for GPM (IMERG) since April 2014.

The Integrated Multi-satellitE Retrievals for GPM product combines precipitation observations using infrared and microwave sensors from a constellation of partner satellites, united by the GPM Core Observatory, to provide near real-time half-hourly precipitation estimates at 10km resolution for the entire globe.

GPM is an international satellite mission led by NASA and the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) that will provide next-generation observations of rain and snow worldwide.

The Global Precipitation Measurement mission is an international satellite project that provides next-generation observations of rain and snow worldwide every three hours.
