precipitation
This layer shows observed precipitation data for Japan with 13 time bands representing 5-minute increments for the previous 60 minutes.
This layer contains multiple bands representing data over time. The raster-array-band can be used to specify the band to display, and can be changed at runtime to create time-based animations. If no raster-array-band property is specified in your style layer, the first (earliest) band will be used by default.
The band ids are Unix timestamps generated when the tileset is updated. Inspect the tileset's TileJSON to find band ids in the raster_layers field, or get the source at runtime to inspect the available bands.
