        Integrated Surface Hourly (ISH) Data is digital data set
DSI-3505, archived at the National Climatic Data Center (NCDC). The Integrated 
Surface Hourly (ISH) database is composed of worldwide surface weather 
observations from about 20,000 stations, collected and stored from sources such 
as the Automated Weather Network (AWN), the Global Telecommunications System 
(GTS), the Automated Surface Observing System (ASOS), and data keyed from paper 
forms. Most digital observations are decoded either at operational centers and 
forwarded to the Federal Climate Complex (FCC) in Asheville, NC, or decoded at 
the FCC. The US Air Force Combat Climatology Center (AFCCC), the National 
Climatic Data Center (NCDC), and the US Navy&apos;s Fleet Numerical 
Meteorological and Oceanographical Command Detachment (FNMOD), make up the FCC 
in Asheville. Each agency is responsible for data ingest, quality control, and 
customer support for surface climatological data.  All data are now stored in a 
single ASCII format. Numerous DOD and civilian customers use this database in 
climatological applications.

ISH refers to the digital database and format in which hourly and synoptic 
(3-hourly) weather observations are stored. The format conforms to Federal 
Information Processing Standards (FIPS).  The database includes data 
originating from various codes such as synoptic, airways, METAR (Meteorological 
Routine Weather Report), and SMARS (Supplementary Marine Reporting Station), as 
well as observations from automatic weather stations.  The data are sorted by 
station-year-month-day-hour-minute.

      <purpose>
        To make a wide range of climatic data available to researchers
and the public.
