ScTI has performed a detailed analysis of four optical rain gauge ORG-105 sensors tested by Wallops Island on 8 May 1992. The four ORG's tested were S/N 2236, 2237, 2239, and 2241. Shown is a 30 minute time series of the individual ORG's, the ORG average, and the weighing gauge. The sensors tracked well with rainrates (RR) up to 45 mm/hr for the period. Also shown is a plot of accumulated rainfall over the same period. It can be seen that even though the ORG's tracked well, some ORG's tended to read higher and some read lower during the event.
