Overview
This data set, part of the SnowEx 2017 campaign, contains raw data captured from the SnowSAR instrument. The processed SnowSAR data are also archived at NSIDC (DOI: 10.5067/TWRTXCYBCBB8).
The SnowSAR instrument flew on the NP-3C Orion aircraft and collected data at the X (9.6 GHz) and Ku (17.25 GHz) bands. Data were captured across Colorado, including near the SnowEx 2017 Grand Mesa, Colorado study site and Vail, Colorado. Data were acquired between 16 February 2017 and 22 February 2017.
