Army Research Lab Leosphere 100S LiDAR Data captured during Fall Campaign (LID-ARL-FALL)

Project:

MATERHORN-X

Summary

This data set contains the Army Research Lab's Leosphere 100S LiDAR data. Data was collected during the Mountain Terrain Atmospheric Modeling and Observations (MATERHORN-X) Fall campaign. Scans are available for 2012 September 26, 28, and 29 and October 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 10, 11, 14, 15, 17, 18, 19, 20 and 21. Files are the original data and have not been quality controlled. Files include jpegs for each scan as well as ASCII tab separated data files ending in an .rtd extension. The time stamps are based off of UTC time for all the instruments for the MATERHORN-X data, unless it was stated otherwise. Please refer to the readme file for more information.

Archive note

Please note that the files have been compressed using the zip format. The number of zip files is considerable and it's recommended to narrow your request range to a specific day or shorter.
