Spatial Interpolation of Daily Rainfall Data for Local Climate Impact Assessment over Greater Sydney Region by Xihua Yang, Xiaojin Xie, De Li Liu, Fei Ji, Lin Wang

“…The results indicate that Inverse Distance Weighting (IDW) method is slightly better than the other three methods and it is also easy to implement in a geographic information system (GIS). The IDW method was then used to produce forty-year (1990–2009 and 2040–2059) time series rainfall data at daily, monthly, and annual time scales at a ground resolution of 100 m for the Greater Sydney Region (GSR). …”
