DataHawk Unmanned Aerial System (b1 level data)
This datastream encapsulates the content of the assist "annotator" files that record critical system operating parameters at 1-s resolution.
This umbrella contains data from all instrumentation associated with the aircraft’s navigational location, motion, and attitude data. Navigational instrumentation on the Gulfstream-159 includes navigational data recorded from the AIMMS-20 (for other AIMMS produced data see the instrument category MET-AIR), CMigits global positioning system (GPS) & Inertial Navigational System (INS) Tactical System, Differential Survey Module (DSM), and VectorNav VN-200 INS. For a higher-order product that contains navigational data integrated with meteorological data and sampling masks/flags to aid analysis please see the categorical value added product NAVMET-AIR.

Soil Temperature and Moisture Profiles
High-spectral-resolution lidar (HSRL) systems collect data about clouds and aerosols. These systems provide vertical profiles of optical depth, backscatter cross-section, depolarization, and backscatter phase function. All HSRL measurements are absolutely calibrated by reference to molecular scattering, which is measured at each point in the lidar profile. Like the Raman lidar, but unlike simple backscatter lidars such as the micropulse lidar, the HSRL can measure backscatter cross-sections and optical depths without prior assumptions about the scattering properties of the atmosphere. The depolarization observations also allow robust discrimination between ice and water clouds. In addition, rigorous error estimates can be computed for all measurements. A very narrow, angular field of view reduces multiple scattering contributions. The small field of view, coupled with a narrow optical bandwidth, nearly eliminates noise due to scattered sunlight. ARM operates two HSRL systems, one at the Barrow, North Slope of Alaska (NSA) site and the other in the second ARM Mobile Facility (AMF2), which is deployed at various locations on field campaigns.
This datastream encapsulates the contents of the ASSIST "ExtraCSV" files. The ExtraCSV files contain an array of defined system constants, quantities derived from the calibrated radiances including brightness temperatures and noise estimates. It also contains most values from both the housekeeping (hkp) and annotator (ann) files except at coarser temporal resolution so represents a virtual one-stop-shop for determining the ASSIST system status.
