Multi-Network Composite 5mb Vertical Resolution Sounding Composite
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/541.046

Summary
This data set contains a composite of the 5mb vertical resolution upper air
sounding data from all sources for the Verification of the Origins of Rotation
in Thunderstorms Experiment-Southeast 2017 (VORTEX-SE_2017) project. The
composite includes 1803 soundings from all VORTEX-SE 2017 sounding systems
(Colorado State University, Mississippi State University, NOAA/ATDD, Purdue
University, Texas Tech University, University of Louisiana Monroe, and
University of Alabama Huntsville) as well as those from the National Weather
Service.
