University of Utah Halo Photonics Stream Line Scanning Doppler LiDAR Data
Captured During Spring Campaign (LID-UOU-SPRING)
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/535.008

Summary
This data set contains the University of Utah's Halo Photonics Stream Line
Scanning Doppler LiDAR Data. Data was collected during intense observation
periods between 1 May and 31 May 2013 during the Mountain Terrain Atmospheric
Modeling and Observations (MATERHORN-X) Spring field campaign. Files are the
original data and have not been quality controlled. The format is ASCII tab
separated and different scanning strategies have different file naming
conventions. The time stamps are based off of UTC time for all the instruments
for the MATERHORN-X data, unless it was stated otherwise. Please refer to the
readme file for more information.

These files have been zipped together by day.
