GHRC Publishes GOES-R PLT CRS dataset

The NASA Global Hydrology Resource Center (GHRC) DAAC published the GOES-R Post Launch Test (PLT) Cloud Radar System (CRS) dataset. The CRS provides high-resolution profiles of reflectivity and Doppler velocity at aircraft nadir along the flight track. The CRS was flown aboard a NASA ER-2 high-altitude aircraft during the GOES-R Post Launch Test (PLT) field campaign. The campaign took place from March to May 2017 in support of post-launch L1b and L2+ product validation of the Advanced Baseline Imager (ABI) and the Geostationary Lightning Mapper (GLM). Data files in netCDF-3 format are available for April 11, 2017 through May 17, 2017.
