UAH MAPNet Radiosonde Data
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/626.023

Summary
Data from the University of Alabama-Huntsville (UAH) Mobile Atmospheric
Profiling Network (MAPNet) radiosondes that were deployed at locations around
the southeastern United States for five PERiLS 2023 deployments. The PERiLS
deployments were on 16-17 February, 3, 24-25, and 31 March and 1 and 5 April
2023. The dataset includes data from the iMet radiosonde systems that were
with the Mobile Integrated Profiling System (MIPS) and Rapidly Deployable
Atmospheric Profiling System (RaDAPS) platforms as well as the Windsond
systems that were with the Mobile Doppler Lidar & Soundings (MoDLS), Mobile
Alabama X-Band (MAX), and Mobile Meteorological Mesonet Vehicle (M3V)
platforms Measurements include vertical profiles of temperature, moisture and
winds.
