SGP97 Radar: WSI NIDS Radar Data
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/25.022

Summary
This dataset contains a limited set of WSR-88D Level III data products
archived from the WSI NIDS datastream for radars in the SGP97 domain. The
products archived are base reflectivity and velocity at 0.5 and 1.5 degrees,
composite reflectivity, and Vertical Azimuth Display (VAD) wind profile. The
sites that were archived are KAMA, KGLD, KDDC, KICT, KINX and KTLX. 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.
