Martinique IBTrACS Tropical Cyclone Tracks with WMO Wind and Pressure

Supplying historical and recent tropical cyclone track data for the Martinique region, sourced from the International Best Track Archive for Climate Stewardship (IBTrACS). It aggregates multi-agency observations into an unified format including wind speed and pressure metrics, with records updated through March 2026. The data is maintained by HDX and serves as a standardized record of storm intensity and movement.

Use Cases

• Analyzing storm intensity trends using WMO_WIND and WMO_PRES values
• Mapping historical storm paths via LAT and LON coordinates
• Calculating cyclone frequency over time using ISO_TIME and SID

Strengths

• Includes standardized WMO_WIND and WMO_PRES metrics
• Provides geospatial data in both CSV and GEOJSON formats

Limitations

• Geographic scope is restricted to the Martinique vicinity
• Historical data precision may vary based on the reporting agency's original technology
