This study aims to develop the intensity–duration–frequency (IDF) curves for Yangon, the economic center of Myanmar, using four satellite precipitation datasets, namely GPM IMERG, TRMM, GSMaP_NRT, and GSMaP_GC. Different probability distribution functions were used to fit the annual rainfall maximum...
