UAH ARMOR C-Band Radar Data (Carey/UAH) https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/527.026 Summary This data set contains University of Alabama Huntsville Advanced Radar for Meteorological and Operational Research (ARMOR) data. It was collected during intense observation periods between 24 February and 1 May 2016 for the Verification of the Origins of Rotation in Tornadoes EXperiment-Southeast (VORTEX-SE) 2016 field campaign. Data is in the Universal Format (Common Doppler Radar Exchange Format) and has been quality controlled. For more information about the instrument, data format, and quality control procedure, see the included documentation pdf. Files have been compressed by date of IOP. Uncompressing the file will reveal the documentation pdf, a log directory containing a summary pdf with details about that IOP's data capture, and a directory of the compressed .uf files.
