ISS MAPR Site Surface Met Imagery [EOL]
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/92.111

Summary
This data set contains surface meteorology imagery from the Integrated
Sounding System (ISS) Multiple Antenna Profiler Radar (MAPR) sites during
T-REX. MAPR is an advanced wind profiler radar developed to make rapid wind
measurements of the boundary layer. The radar's antenna is divided into 4
vertically pointing sub-arrays for reception, and uses Spaced Antenna
techniques to measure wind. As the atmosphere moves over the radar, the motion
of the atmospheric echoes is tracked over the receivers to make a wind
measurement. This data set contains real-time imagery files taken from the
T-REX Field Catalog.
