These include radiosondes, pibals and aircraft reports from the Global Telecommunications System (GTS), and satellite data from the National Environmental Satellite Data and Information Service (NESDIS). The reports can include pressure, geopotential height, air temperature, dew point temperature, wind direction and speed. Data may be available at up to 20 mandatory levels from 1000 millibars to 1 millibar, plus a few significant levels. Report intervals range from hourly to 12 hourly. These data are the primary input to the NCEP Global Data Assimilation System (GDAS), which is used to create the NCEP Final Tropospheric Analyses (FNL). Full daily data can be downloaded in BUFR or LITTLE_R format. Spatial subsets decoded into ASCII can also be selected by latitude/longitude or station ID. onGoing datahelp@ucar.edu pointOfContact daily dataset https://gdex.ucar.edu/images/ds_logos/default_200_200.png Logo thumbnail from URL png LITTLE R WMO BUFR dataset Resource Type 2021-03-30 revision 4.4 DataCite Metadata Working Group orginator resourceTypeGeneral AIRCRAFT FIXED OBSERVATION STATIONS > FIXED OBSERVATION STATIONS FIXED SHIPS GROUND STATIONS > GROUND STATIONS METEOROLOGICAL STATIONS > METEOROLOGICAL STATIONS MOVING SHIPS OCEAN WEATHER STATIONS Ships WEATHER STATIONS > WEATHER STATIONS U.S. National Aeronautics and Space Administration Global Change Master Directory GCMD 2026-03-19 revision 23.6 NASA Global Change Master Directory orginator Valids List: Platforms GTS > Global Telecommunications System WRF > WRF (Weather Research and Forecasting) Modeling U.S. National Aeronautics and Space Administration Global Change Master Directory GCMD 2026-03-19 revision 23.6 NASA Global Change Master Directory orginator Valids List: Projects EARTH SCIENCE > ATMOSPHERE > ALTITUDE > GEOPOTENTIAL HEIGHT EARTH SCIENCE > ATMOSPHERE > ATMOSPHERIC PRESSURE > ATMOSPHERIC PRESSURE MEASUREMENTS EARTH SCIENCE > ATMOSPHERE > ATMOSPHERIC TEMPERATURE > UPPER AIR TEMPERATURE EARTH SCIENCE > ATMOSPHERE > ATMOSPHERIC WATER VAPOR > WATER VAPOR INDICATORS > DEW POINT TEMPERATURE EARTH SCIENCE > ATMOSPHERE > ATMOSPHERIC WINDS > SURFACE WINDS EARTH SCIENCE > ATMOSPHERE > ATMOSPHERIC WINDS > UPPER LEVEL WINDS U.S. National Aeronautics and Space Administration Global Change Master Directory GCMD 2026-03-19 revision 23.6 NASA Global Change Master Directory orginator Valids List: Science and Services Keywords Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License None eng utf-8 climatologyMeteorologyAtmosphere 1900-01-17 2046-10-03 NSF NCAR Geoscience Data Exchange datahelp@ucar.edu https://gdex.ucar.edu distributor 26507520.914 https://gdex.ucar.edu/datasets/d351000/ https Dataset Description Related Link information https://gdex.ucar.edu/datasets/d351000/dataaccess/ https Data Access Related Link download none asNeeded
