MP2 UAH MIPS Doppler Lidar Data
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/485.096

Summary
This data set contains wind profile, RHI, and Vertical Stare data from the
Doppler Lidar that was on-board the PECAN Mobile PISA 2 University of
Alabama-Huntsville MIPS vehicle. The measurements are in an ASCII format and
from locations around the central United States for most of the PECAN IOPs and
UFOs from 1 June to 16 July 2015.
