The question of whether CRU dumped «raw» data is a little deceptive, because CRU, NASA, and NOAA don't put together first - order temperature measurements — that's up to
various national meteorological services, which rely on satellites as well as thermometer readings on land and at sea.
GFDRR's Hydromet team and the World Bank have partnered with
leading national meteorological services across the globe — including agencies from Austria, China, Finland, Japan, Switzerland, Sweden, United Kingdom, and United States — and work closely with the World Meteorological Organization (WMO).
Input data for the analysis, collected by many
national meteorological services around the world, is the unadjusted data of the Global Historical Climatology Network (Peterson and Vose, 1997 and 1998) except that the USHCN station records included were replaced by a later corrected version.

Recently, Philip Jones of CRU (Climatic Research Unit) claimed to have entered into a variety of confidentiality agreements
with national meteorological services that prevent him from publicly archiving the land temperature data relied upon by IPCC.
The group reached the conclusion after having succeeded in the mathematical reproduction of the planet's current atmospheric conditions, through computer modeling that used a numerical model of the atmosphere developed by the Met Office, the UK's
national meteorological service.
