Reviewer comments

The submission is correct. The data is available online in different formats (such as text descriptions, or meteograms) but cannot be downloaded. There is no open license attributed, and no terms of use could be found that would state that the data is in public domain. Thank you, Nouman Nazim, for contributing to the Global Open Data Index.
