FP6 University of Manitoba Doppler Lidar Zenith Pointing Data
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/485.035

Summary
This data set contains the data from the Leosphere 200S Doppler Lidar that was
located at the PECAN Fixed PISA 6 site at Hesston, Kansas when it was
vertically pointing. There are both daily netCDF data files and daily png
imagery files in this data set.

Versions
  1.0
  2.0: This version released on 13 October 2016 fixes a sign reversal on the
vertical velocity data, so a positive vertical velocity is now
associated with motion away from the lidar (i.e. updrafts) which now
matches the convention used for the other PECAN Doppler lidar datasets.
