Resource Abstract:
- description: The National Weather Service (NWS) Storm Prediction Center (SPC) routinely collects reports of severe weather
and compiles them with public access from the database called SeverePlot (Hart and Janish 1999) with a Graphic Information
System (GIS). The composite SVRGIS information is made available to the public primarily in .zip files of approximately 50MB
size. The files located at the access point have organized severe weather data by County Warning Area (CWA). A CWA is a grouping
of counties for which severe weather information is distributed. Although available to all, the data provided may be of particular
value to weather professionals and students of meteorological sciences. An instructional manual is provided on how to build
and develop a basic severe weather report GIS database in ArcGis and is located at the technical documentation site contained
in this metadata catalog.; abstract: The National Weather Service (NWS) Storm Prediction Center (SPC) routinely collects reports
