CaPE USAF/CCAFS RATS Rawinsonde Data
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/2.27

Summary
A back-up USAF/CCAFS Radiotheodolite Automatic Tracking System (RATS) was
provided to CaPE. Flights from 9-12 July were for training and RATS was
available through 28 July. Data consists of vertical profiles of pressure,
temperature,relative humidity and wind speed/direction. Data are available in
two resolutions: 500-2000 gpf and 6 sec (only thermodynamic and balloon
position).
