The team has installed a rain gauge in the village of Adi ha, which they hope to use in future years, but the team had no choice but to base their rainfall metrics on satellite data this year.

这个团队在阿迪哈村安装了一个雨量测量器，希望能在未来几年内使用，而今年，这个团队别无选择，只能利用卫星提供的雨量数据。

The information of the rain-detecting radar is to be used for calculating the regional rainfall so as to improve the relevant calculation solely based on data from limited rain gauge stations.

拟用测雨天气雷达信息来进行有关雨量的计算以弥补单纯依靠有限个雨量站点计算面雨量的不足。

The precision of rain gauge data is high and the spatial distribution of radar-explored data is applicable (reasonable).

雨量站实测点雨量精度高，雷达站测的数据在空间上分布合理。

"It would be most useful for countries where they don't have much rain gauge data or weather radar - in Africa for instance, they do have mobile phones, at least in areas where the population density is high enough, " he told BBC News.
