CPS Quality Controlled Radiosonde Dataset
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/495.001

Summary
Radiosonde launches deployed by the EOL Integrated Sounding System (ISS)
during the Cloud and Precipitation Study (CPS) project. Data are in eol ascii
format. 73 radiosonde are included in the final archive. The average
horizontal distance traveled by the radiosondes during this project was 31.5
km (19.6 miles) from surface to 20.3 km.
