Composite Highest Resolution Upper Air Data
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/77.069

Summary
This data is a composite upper-air sounding data set which contains all
upper-air sounding data collected from 25 platforms (excluding the reference
sonde) during IHOP_2002. The data in the composite is at the highest possible
resolution (i.e. the 'native' resolution). For more information about this
data set please consult the Readme. Note: as of May 12th,2003, this dataset
contains reprocessed dropsonde profiles from the Lear and Falcon. ATD released
the new dropsonde dataset May 1st,2003.
