BBC NEWS | Science/Nature | Space network to track rainfall
"The US and Japanese space agencies (Nasa and Jaxa) are to launch a satellite network
to measure rainfall around the world. The Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) project will provide three-hourly reports on rainfall. It aims to improve weather forecasting and understanding of how the global water cycle affects climatic change. Details of the $1.1bn (£636m) project, due to begin in 2011, were presented at a conference in Vienna, Austria."
