Homestead Integrated Sounding System (ISS) Radiosonde Data
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/77.005

Summary
This is one of the upper air data sets developed for the International H20
Project 2002 (IHOP 2002). This data set contains rawinsonde profiles from the
Homestead site located in the Oklahoma Panhandle. Rawinsondes were released
from May 12th to June 25th ,2002. The Homestead site utilized the National
Center for Atmospheric Research Atmospheric Technology Division's (NCAR/ATD)
Integrated Sounding System (ISS). This data set has undergone ATD and The
University Corporation for Atmospheric Research Joint Office of Science
Support (UCAR/JOSS) quality control procedures. Consult the README for more
information about data format, contacts, and data quality control.
