How do I download IMDAA data?
Download IMDAA ZIP archives from the NCMRWF portal. Upload the ZIP to NetCDF Studio, select the variables you need, and click Process to receive a CSV.
What variables are available in IMDAA?
IMDAA includes temperature (2m and pressure levels), rainfall, wind speed and direction, humidity, solar radiation, and soil moisture at multiple depths. NetCDF Studio detects available variables automatically from your uploaded file.
Can I apply FAO-56 corrections to IMDAA data?
Yes — the correction engine supports FAO-56 Penman-Monteith evapotranspiration, radiation integration from W/m² to MJ/m²/day, temperature unit conversion, vapour pressure, and rainfall erosivity. Each module is optional and fully documented.
