CopterSonde WxUAS Profile Data
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/610.058

Summary
Vertical profiles of temperature, moisture, and wind from the NOAA/NSSL
CopterSonde uncrewed aerial system (UAS) that flew from three locations around
the southeastern United States during the Propagation, Evolution and Rotation
in Linear Storms (PERiLS) 2022 campaign. Flights were up to 1.52km above
ground level and were conducted approximately every 30 minutes during an eight
hour window leading up to the arrival of convection.

CopterSonde only participated in IOP1 (22 March), IOP2 (30 March) and IOP4 (13
April).
