ISS Wind Lidar Data Products

Summary
Vaisala/Leosphere Windcube and Halo Lidar products collected by the EOL
Integrated Sounding System team during the Multi-point Monin-Obukhov
similarity horizontal array turbulence study (M2HATS) field campaign in
Tonopah, Nevada, USA. All data for a given scan type (i.e. Stare PPI, RHI,
VER) are available for order as tarred, compressed files (.tar.gz). These
include Windcube CF-Radial lidar parameters provided in individual netCDF
files for each scan, and leased Halo lidar Stare scans in hpl ascii format.
Quality controlled, daily netCDF files of Velocity Azimuth Display (VAD)
technique derived wind profiles and 30-minute consensus averaged wind profiles
are also avaiable for bulk order as tar.gz files. Lidar scans available for
download: Halo datasets: m2hats_iss_lidar-halo-metek_stare_hpl.tar.gz (8Gb)
