NSF/NCAR C-130 Aerosol Cloud Particle Imager (CPI) Data
Summary
The Cloud Particle Imager captures high-resolution images (pixel size 2.3 microns) using a CCD camera. The CPI has two Particle Detector Sensor lasers that instruct the camera to capture an image. This dataset contains region of interest (roi) binary image files of cloud particles which can be viewed using the IDL software linked to below
For all of the flights, the CPI makes as many *.roi files as it needs; each file can be maximum 92Mb size and then a new file is opened.
