VORTEX2: Texas Tech University Sticknet Mass Test Data

Summary

This dataset includes the Mobile Sticknet Mass Test Data collected during the two VORTEX2 field phases (i.e., 10 May 2009 to 13 June 2009 and 1 May 2010 to 15 June 2010). The following files are include in this dataset: 2009_StickNet_MassTests.tar and 2010_StickNet_MassTests.tar which are the tar files of the data from StickNet mass tests (used to determine instrument bias, as discussed in the readme documents) and TTU_STICKNET_README_v2.txt and TTU_STICKNET_README_2010.txt which are the documentation files for the Sticknet data. Please see the readme documents for more information. Also see the related dataset named Texas Tech University Sticknet Data.
