Meteorological Data
Meteorological data refers to information collected about atmospheric and weather conditions over time, essential for understanding, predicting, and analyzing weather patterns and climate phenomena. It includes measurements such as temperature, precipitation, wind speed and direction, humidity, atmospheric pressure, solar radiation, cloud cover, visibility, and records of specific weather events like thunderstorms and cyclones.
