Abstract: We collected short-duration heavy precipitation events around weather radar since 2020 and get radar base data of these events. Then, we extracted radar products like Composite Reflectivity (CR), echo top height (ET) and Vertically Integrated Liquid Water (VIL) from radar base data after quality control as the input of dataset, and merge the surface precipitation of 6 minutes with background field using multi-grid variation to generate precipitation label by 6 minutes. Thus, we constructed two datasets artificial intelligence application QpefQH for short-duration heavy precipitation. QpefQH dataset has a scale of more than 15,000 images available for radar echo extrapolation and quantitative precipitation estimation tasks based on deep learning. QpefQH dataset also includes multi-source data such as satellite, numerical model, sounding, lightning, land surface temperature, pressure, wind and other observation data. QpefQH can be shared as a benchmark dataset for artificial intelligence research on short-duration heavy precipitation in Qinghai Province.
