VOCALS: PMS-2D Two-dimensional Cloud Probe data [NCAR/EOL]

Summary

This dataset contains raw (binary "filmstrip" imagery) files of PMS-2D data collected by the C-130 during VOCALS. Summary data have been merged with the "NCAR C-130 Navigation, State Parameter, and Microphysics LRT (1-sps) Data" These data are in a format compatible with xpms2d, available from the EOL xpms2d download page.
