Digital Camera Movies - preliminary
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/383.011

Summary
During the CONvective TRansport of Active Species in the Tropics (CONTRAST)
experiment, the Gulfstream-V High-performance Instrumented Airborne Platform
for Environmental Research (NSF/NCAR GV HIAPER) GV_N677F flew four digital
cameras for in-flight video capture: forward-, down-, left- and right-looking.
Individual photo (JPEG) images were captured once per second during flights.
Images taken after dark have been stripped from this archive. Remaining images
were combined into a mosiac and converted to Quicktime movie files. The movies
are h.264 codec playable with Quicktime (Mac and Windows), xine, (linux) and
mplayer (many platforms). The original images are 1024x768 pixels and were
recorded at 1 frame/second. The movies are set to play back at 512x384 pixels
and 15 fps.
