The lidars were configured to perform 90 degree plan position indicator (PPI) scans along a flat horizontal plane (zero degrees elevation) in a synchronized fashion (dual-Doppler). The central transect line is synchronized in time and space, while the other overlapping points are synchronized only in space. The lidars switch their scanning orientation (east or west facing) to follow the inflow wind direction. This action was performed by the lidar operator.</p><p><br></p><p>This is an original dataset. It represents Level 2.3 data product in the FAIR lidar data schematics, that is geo-located radial velocities stored in NetCDF files with dimensions of time, range and line-of-sight number.</p><p><br></p><p>Consult a list of references for more details about :</p><p><br></p><p>(1) WindScanner (https://doi.org/10.3390/rs8110896)</p><p><br></p><p>(2) FAIR lidar data standard (http://e-windlidar.windenergy.dtu.dk/document/report.pdf)</p><p><br></p><p>Related publications will be updated with a link to the paper that presents data from of phase 2 of the Balcony experiment.</p></div></div></div><div><div><div> </div> </div> </div>
