Sažetak
Accurate rainfall measurement– its intensity and spatial distribution - is crucial for both hydrological research and development of early warning system for floods and landslides. On a complex and mountain terrain even a large number of rain gauges are not enough to accurately measure spatial rainfall variability over wide areas such as river catchments. Weather radar offers a way to measure precipitation with both high spatial and temporal resolution. But before radar measurements can be used for hydrological application it is necessary to analyse the data by comparing it to the rain gauge data in order to assess its accuracy and if necessary, choose appropriate calibration methods.
