This is the home page for the NCAR Integrated Sounding System ISS component of the IHOP project. The ISS was located at the "Homestead" or "Profiling Site", near Elmwood in the Oklahoma panhandle, approximately 16km east of the S-Pol site.

Homestead Site
The Homestead site was the home for a number of instruments from other groups, (here's the approx layout), including:
• U.WI Aeribago Homestead Page with profiling radiometer and satellite images
• U.Mass FMCW radar.
• NASA Scanning Raman Lidar
• NASA HARLIE Holographic-based backscatter lidar
• NASA GLOW Doppler Lidar

Data and plots for all IHOP instruments are available from JOSS Data Management and Field Catalog pages for IHOP

Status Notes

Quality-controlled data have been released for both mobile GLASS platforms and the fixed GLASS station at the ISS/MAPR site. Those data can be found in the ftp directory given below. The surface dataset has not been checked for quality, but it has been checked for completeness against the dataset archived in the field. Daily files for those data are also available at the ftp site in both netcdf and text format. The online plots and thumbnail indexes for the ISS surface data and fixed and mobile soundings have been regenerated using these updated datasets. (Note the images still include the warning about "realtime data not checked for quality".)
