We delivered several rainfall products obtained from satellite soil moisture data through the SM2RAIN algorithm (Brocca et al., 2014). The more recent datasets have improved spatial-temporal resolution, all datasets are freely available and can be downloaded by clicking on the link(s) below.
We have published 4 SM2RAIN-based global rainfall dataset on Zenodo (FREELY available)

🆕We are running 🛰️#SM2RAIN-ASCAT rainfall product in near real time in Italy‼️
👇Monthly anomaly maps in the hydrological year Sep2019-May2020
Only Nov2019 is blue (positive anomaly), JanFeb2020 norain!
We are running dry 🏜️ @DPCgov @irriframe @eumetsat @CopernicusECMWF pic.twitter.com/0yabz4Jtn1— Hydrology IRPI-CNR (@Hydrology_IRPI) May 23, 2020
Additional products will be available soon covering a longer time period and exploiting new satellite soil moisture products by SMOS, SMAP, Sentinel-1, and others (e.g., Koster et al., 2016; Román-Cascón et al., 2017; Tarpanelli et al., 2017, SM2RAIN-SCATSAR).
3-years of rainfall in Italy with spatial resolition of 3 km!
