Digital Camera Movies - preliminary

Project:

Summary

During the CONvective TRansport of Active Species in the Tropics (CONTRAST) experiment, the Gulfstream-V High-performance Instrumented Airborne Platform for Environmental Research (NSF/NCAR GV HIAPER) GV_N677F flew four digital cameras for in-flight video capture: forward-, down-, left- and right-looking. Individual photo (JPEG) images were captured once per second during flights. Images taken after dark have been stripped from this archive. Remaining images were combined into a mosiac and converted to Quicktime movie files. The movies are h.264 codec playable with Quicktime (Mac and Windows), xine, (linux) and mplayer (many platforms). The original images are 1024x768 pixels and were recorded at 1 frame/second. The movies are set to play back at 512x384 pixels and 15 fps.
