a, Relative economic value analysis across 20 samples for three 90-min rainfall accumulations, using 4-km aggregations. UNet generates a single deterministic prediction. b, Meteorologist preferences for the case study in Fig. 1. c, Meteorologist rankings for medium rain (5 mm h−1) cases. d, Meteorologist rankings for heavy rain (10 mm h−1) cases. Horizontal bars show the percentage of meteorologists who chose each method as their first choice. Whisker lines show the Clopper–Pearson 95% confidence interval. Meteorologists significantly preferred DGMR to alternatives (n = 56, P < 10−4).
