Average precipitation and PET over Switzerland at 500m resolution

Long-term (1980-2011) average annual precipitation (pcp_ch_longterm_yr_avg.tif) and potential evapotranspiration (pet_ch_longterm_yr_avg.tif) at 500m resolution. Units are mm per year. Files are GeoTIFF rasters, and can be read in R using the command raster("pcp_ch_longterm_yr_avg.tif), after installing packages "raster" and "rgdal".
