Abstract

Digital dataset of typhoon tracks during the early 20th century over the Western North Pacific. This dataset was not used for a long period. Because, it was stored in paper books in a library. I digitized the locations of typhoon tracks from the "Monthly Bulletins of the Philippine Weather Bureau". This dataset has been checked the quality of typhoon definition and tracks by comparing the current best track data.
