An open-source package for the automated quality control of rain gauge data

Quality control is a critical step in the preparation of rainfall data. Decisions made to remove data from a rainfall record at any stage impact all downstream uses. Whilst there is a strong foundation about how QC should be done, existing QC workflows can suffer from a lack of reproducibility or require specific data inputs.
This talk outlines RainfallQC, a tool for quality controlling rain gauge data in a flexible, user-driven way. Built upon the GSDR-QC framework, it provides 27 customisable QC checks for rain gauge data at 15 min, 1 hr, 1 day and 1 month resolutions. I demonstrate the use of RainfallQC v0.4.0 within a data processing pipeline, and discuss plans for its use at UKCEH.
