Mexico - Surface Weather Observations

Mexican Surface Daily Observations taken at 94 observatories located throughout Mexico, beginning in 1872 and going up through 1981. The data resided on paper records stored in non-climate-controlled conditions, and were therefore subject to deterioration and loss. This Climate Dabase Modernization Program task set up digital cameras to image these records, creating color .jpg images of the Mexican National Meteorological Service forms.
