GTS BUFR Radiosonde Data
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/100.030

Summary
This data set includes the BUFR format radiosonde data that were received via
the GTS feed at NCAR/EOL for stations around the world. The data are a mix of
the mandatory and significant level TEMP message data in BUFR format and the
high vertical resolution (typically 1 or 2 second) BUFR data. Not all global
stations transmit their data in BUFR format and some only transmit one or the
other of the two BUFR forms.
