UMass X-Pol Radar Data in DORADE format https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/527.028 Summary This data set contains data from the University of Massachusetts X-Pol Radar. It was collected during intense observation periods between 14 March and 30 April 2016 for the Verification of the Origins of Rotation in Tornadoes EXperiment-Southeast (VORTEX-SE) 2016 Field Campaign. This data is provided in the DORADE sweep format and has undergone some processing. For more information about the instrument, data product, and processing, see the included Readme file. Files have been compressed by date and hour using tar and qzip.
