Google Earth Engine – How to Add Rainfall FeatureCollection Layer Over Globe

feature-collectiongoogle-earth-enginejavascriptlarge datasetsprecipitation

I am trying to print the precipitation imageCollection allover the whole world but I allways get only a part of the image.
as you see in the image, the north of europe is empty and event when I use the inspector, there is no values there.
not that the CHIRPS dataset that I am using is a global dataset.

enter image description here

  var startYear = '2000';
  var endYear = '2013';
  var dataset_precip= CHIRPS.filterDate(startYear, endYear);
  Map.addLayer(dataset_precip,{},'dataset_precip');

Best Answer

Is not a GEE error/lack of data. This dataset hasn't global coverage. From CHIRPS: Rainfall Estimates from Rain Gauge and Satellite Observations

CHIRPS Overview

Climate Hazards Group InfraRed Precipitation with Station data (CHIRPS) is a 35+ year quasi-global rainfall data set. Spanning 50°S-50°N (and all longitudes) and ranging from 1981 to near-present, CHIRPS incorporates our in-house climatology, CHPclim, 0.05° resolution satellite imagery, and in-situ station data to create gridded rainfall time series for trend analysis and seasonal drought monitoring.
