The finalized value and live published value for Typhoon 15 differ. The live published value provides the operational positioning data during the typhoon’s active period. After the typhoon ends, the China Meteorological Administration reviews more complete observational data and revises the final value to produce the best-track dataset. Academic research and historical rankings generally use the finalized value. Data sources: China Meteorological Administration Tropical Cyclone Best Track Dataset, compiled through IBTrACS v04r01. Wind speeds were converted from knots to m/s and rounded to the nearest integer.
