UAH MIPS 915 MHz Wind Profiler Data
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/541.037

Summary
This data set contains wind profiles from the University of Alabama-Huntsville
(UAH) 915 MHz wind profiler during the 2017 VORTEX-SE field season. The 915
MHz wind profiler is part of the UAH Mobile Integrated Profiling System (MIPS)
system. The data set includes the raw data (binary format), processed data
(columnar ASCII format), as well as quicklook imagery.
