Forward-Looking Digital Camera Imagery
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/96.001

Summary
During PACDEX, the GV flew a forward looking digital camera for in-flight
video capture. Individual photo jpeg images were captured once per second
during PACDEX flights. Images taken after dark have been stripped from this
archive and the remaining images have been combined into hour long tarfiles
running from zero minutes zero seconds (or the start time of the first file)
to 23 minutes 59 seconds (or the end time of the last file) after each hour.
Note that the first and last tarfile for each flight will contain less than a
full hour of imagery. Directory files returned with each order give the
contents of each corresponding tar file.
