Short summary
Highly resolved forecasts of precipitation fields are difficult to evaluate since individual rain features are typically not placed precisely at the right location. Instead of comparing forecasts and observations pixel by pixel, we base our verification on the fields' wavelet transforms which compactly summarize the overall structure. The methodology is rigorously tested using randomly generated rain fields for which that structure can be determined at will.
