DLR Falcon DIAL Quicklook Imagery
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/110.082

Summary
This data set contains backscatter and water vapor mass mixing ratio quicklook
imagery from the DLR Falcon water vapor Differential Absorption Lidar (DIAL)
during flights for T-PARC. The DLR Falcon was based out of Atsugi Naval Air
Station located near Tokyo, Japan. This data set contains the data from all of
the DLR Falcon flights for T-PARC. These images are in the PNG format. On 11
December 2009 this data set was updated with a revised version submitted by
DLR.
