UAH MAPNet MoDLS Doppler Lidar Data
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/626.031

Summary
Data from the University of Alabama-Huntsville (UAH) Mobile Atmospheric
Profiling Network (MAPNet) Mobile Doppler Lidar and Soundings (MoDLS) Halo
Photonics Streamline Scanning Doppler Lidar that was deployed at locations
around the southeastern United States for the five PERiLS 2023 deployments.
The PERiLS deployments were on 16-17 February, 3, 24-25, and 31 March and 1
and 5 April 2023. Measurements include vertical profiles of wind speed,
direction, backscatter and vertical velocity at five minute intervals.
