Our goal is to provide high quality, continuous, near-real time data for the observation of SWE. From the new automated measurements we derive the essential climate variables of snow cover (snow height, SWE, spatial coverage) and dynamics (timing of onset and melt, wetting) andprovide a unique dataset by linking existing snow datasets with the new SWE measurements.
