GCIP/ESOP-98 Radar: WSI NIDS Radar Data

Summary

This dataset contains a limited set of WSR-88D Level III data products archived from the WSI NIDS datastream for five radars in the GCIP/ESOP-98 domain (DMX, DVN, LOT, MKX, and MPX). Also, for the period December 1997 and January 1998 DTX, GRB, and GRR were collected for the Lake-ICE project. The products archived are base reflectivity and velocity at the first four tilts, composite reflectivity, and Vertical Azimuth Display (VAD) wind profile. Data are archived in the original WSI NIDS format on exabyte tape. One week's data is contained on a single tape, as one Unix "tar" file per day.
